With a little help from City of London Corporation a group of highly experienced business leaders and investors are creating a meeting place in the heart of London for their entrepreneurial initiatives, bringing together the leading London Universities and Schools, and other London-centric, National and International Entrepreneurial Networks.
A short walk from Farringdon and Barbican tube stations, situated comfortably over the famous London Smithfield meat market, next to the heart of the City of London is a new place for entrepreneurs with high growth potential, to meet, work, and collaborate with the investment community and the industries supporting their entrepreneurial activities.
Affordable permanent desk space and office facilities, a comfortable working and hot desking environment with meeting rooms, and conference/event space, are all supported with a high speed fibre-optic link.
Members can also arrive from across the globe, for their base in London, where they can also benefit from discounted access to all the professional services needed to launch, operate and grow business.
Training, seminars, events, conferences, and informal meetings alongside workspace for over 100 permanent desks, communal work spaces, meeting rooms, events, and conferences facilities (heavily discounted or subsidised for members).
The centre will be set up under the banner “The Innovation Warehouse” - and the model is expected to be rolled out to other major cities in the UK and abroad in due course.
The initiative was recently launched (July 15th 2010) on the walkway galleries over Tower Bridge with over 200 of London’s financial leadership - City Banks - and London’s entrepreneurial leadership - Venture Capital Funds, Academic Commercialisation Departments, Angel Investors, Corporate Professional Services.
This landmark event was hosted under the auspices of the City of London Corporation, by Stuart Fraser, Chairman of the Policy & Resources Committee, and Paul Sizeland, Head of the Department of Economic Development.
