Once Birmingham was described as the workshop of the world thanks to the many diverse trades that were in the city. Today, however that statement still holds strong, Birmingham has many leading companies including many research and development businesses. Developments such as Aston Science Park are home to a diverse range of businesses from Telecoms companies through to supply chain software developers.

With the development of areas such as Broad Street and Brindley Place, the city has no become a major destination for conferences at the International Convention Centre. This coupled with the re-development of the Bull Ring have made the city a major shopping destination too.

The city has a major network of business contacts through the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce that is the largest and oldest Chamber of Commerce in Europe. The city has also attracted many major banks and financial institutions such as Deutsche Bank who moved to the city because of the strong pool of talent that exists in the area.

The city also boasts some excellent office space that have low rents and with the excellent transport infrastructure, it�s easy to why so many businesses are attracted to the area.

The Gambling Commission relocated to the city from its base in London because of the affordable accommodation in the city and the pool of high quality employees that would help the organisation to grow.

Now at the forefront of innovation in low carbon technologies, the city has become a centre of excellence for many R&D projects. The city has also become a real hub for the production of medical technology and major research trials.

The city provides businesses of all sizes with a diverse range of high quality properties ranging from offices to industrial complexes and commercial land to develop.

The Life Sciences Campus at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital is the location of many business associated with the aforementioned medical technologies and the city has simplified the planning process for developers and provide Gap funding for both new developments and existing business spaces.

As a forward thinking city with a large pool of talented people, the city has an extensive and well developed infrastructure and with the development of the �Big City Plan� Birmingham is in line for multi million pound regeneration scheme that will see further developments involving connectivity and accessibility in the city centre.

The new Library of Birmingham is being constructed on Centenary Square that forms part of the regeneration project and will see the creation of 250 new jobs that will include some 25 apprenticeship posts.

New Street Station is in the process of being redevelopment that is aimed to turn in and the surrounding land an internationally renowned space and the city is at the forefront of the high-speed rail development between the city and London. The project is due to start in 2017 and will take about 8-years to complete.

Birmingham International Airport is being substantially re-developed which will increase its capacity and create some 14,000 additional jobs being created.

The other major development in the city is the extension to the Metro line between Snow Hill Station and New Street Station. The development is expected to boost the local economy by some �50million per annum and it will create a further 1,300 jobs in the area. Following completion, the Metro could be carrying as many as 8million passengers per year with some 3.5million of these being delivered to the new shopping development known as the Gateway.

With further regeneration projects such as the Eastside project and the redevelopment of the 140 hectare site on the former MG Rover Factory, more and more businesses will be starting-up or relocating to the city to make the best use of the talent in the area.
