We deliver for Aberdeen.
Aberdeen Inspired is established to attract, sustain and boost investment in Aberdeen’s city centre for the benefit of its levy payers and all those who live, work, shop and visit there.
The Business Improvement District (BID) footprint covers Union Street and the surrounding streets, including Broad Street, Market Street, Bridge Street, Huntly Street and Holburn Junction.
Aberdeen Inspired BID is led and funded by the city centre business community, our levy payers.
The aim is not to act as a substitute for central or local government, but to invest in additional projects to deliver on the objectives set out in the business plan.
While participation is mandatory for businesses within the BID area, others from outside the defined area with an interest in promoting the city and having a voice in Aberdeen Inspired are able to engage and make a contribution or become a voluntary levy payer.
