Nottingham’s economy continues to innovate to stay in touch with the ever-changing business climate.

With strengths in Financial Services, Biotechnology, Low Carbon Technology, Creative Industries as well as Advanced Manufacturing – Nottingham is a versatile business location.

The breadth and depth of the Nottingham workforce also reflects the diversity of the business environment. With over 1 million people living in the city region and 55,000 students at the city’s two leading universities – University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University – companies investing in Nottingham have access to an excellent talent pool.

Nottingham’s central location also helps attract staff to work here as well as making it easy for businesses to operate on a national and global platform. Excellent road, rail and air links brings the rest of the UK and Europe to your doorstep. Nottingham’s world class digital infrastructure also ensures that the global business community is only a click away.



Nottingham is continuing to invest in a sustainable transport infrastructure – with the expansion of the successful tram network, investment in the train station and its award winning public transport network – to ensure people are able to move around the city and county with ease.

Major investment will continue to improve the city and county. Over £1.6 billion will be invested in the city to transform the city centre and create new business space, retail destinations and living spaces. There are also major regeneration programmes taking place in Mansfield, Cotgrave and Newark to ensure our town centres continue to thrive and evolve.

However, it isn’t all just about work. A mixture of vibrant city life and rural landscapes ensures that Nottingham offers a great quality of life for the people that live here.
