What does the ILG do?
The group provides a collaborative strategic forum. This enables leaders from across the industry to engage with each other, government and its agencies.
It works to maximise the economic, social and cultural contribution of tourism and hospitality.
The group is set up to support the ambitions of the Scottish Government’s National Strategy for Economic Transformation (NSET).
In its activities, the group considers the four key priorities of Scotland Outlook 2030:
-
passionate people
-
thriving places
-
diverse businesses
-
memorable experiences
The ILG has identified five cross-cutting missions it believes it can successfully influence to achieve the ambitions of Outlook 2030.
Within those missions there are key game-changing actions required to achieve them. These actions are over and above the core activity already being carried out by industry and public agencies.
The ILG will use its influence to build support, but the actions will only be achieved through collaboration between industry, public, private and third sectors.
The missions are:
-
proud and valued people working for Scotland
-
data and technology empowerment
-
community-led tourism
-
pathway towards net zero
-
sustainable transport
