Canterbury Economic Development Company Limited (CED Co<br />

regional authorities. The core purpose and mission of the company<br />

projects that will benefit Canterbury and to utilise the Canterbury<br />

Regional Economic Development Strategy (CREDS) to coordinate<br />

strategic economic development initiatives.<br />

economic development on behalf of the councils and community of<br />

Canterbury.<br />

Its objectives are:<br />

• To receive, review and select the most appropriate projects for<br />

funding application for the Regional Strategy Fund (RSF).<br />

Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE) during implementation.<br />

• Provide feedback to the district and regional role players<br />

regarding project proposals.<br />

• Communicate (via the administrative agent) shifts and changes<br />

in MED/NZTE to the regional economic development role players.<br />

• Provide a governance and leadership entity to stimulate<br />

collaborative efforts to transform the Canterbury economy.<br />
