The selection of development partner sets in train move to deliver a massive £500m investment programme in the region over the next ten years.
When the bid race started the estimated projects pipeline was just £150m.
Now work will start in earnest to further expand a number of outline plans for a range of health and education projects which have already been identified.
The projects across the East Central territory will be delivered through a joint venture company formed between the various public sector bodies and the Amber Blue consortium.
Three hub deals are now in place with the last remaining hubs, West and South West, currently in procurement.
Barry White, chief executive of the Scottish Futures Trust, said: “This is a great achievement for the East Central Territory hub team Board. I look forward to the East Central hubco working with local suppliers and contractors to deliver quality buildings to provide improved public services for communities right across the East Central hub territory.
“Across Scotland, the hub programme is already building or developing in excess of £100m of essential projects to local communities which in turn will support service improvements to local communities.”
