The investments closed by InvesTT in 2018 are from companies operating within the Manufacturing, ICT, Maritime, Agro-Processing, Services and Creative Industries, which have been targeted by the Government for growth and development in its overall economic diversification strategy. One of the companies will be the newest tenant at Tamana InTech Park which offers 20 land lots for lease within its 1100 acres of prime industrial real estate.
