Plymouth

Plymouth has seen more than £100 million of investment since the South West Regional Development Agency was formed in 1999.

 

Over the next three years, a further £250,000 apiece will be invested by the RDA and English Partnerships.

A city with huge business potential, Plymouth is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, bounded by the rivers Plym and Tamar.

Easily accessible via the A38 Expressway and with direct flights to London Gatwick and key UK destinations from the city's rapidly growing airport.

Seven of the UK's leading marine science and technology organisations come together as the Plymouth Marine Sciences Partnership. Plans to co-locate or link these organisations onto one site will make Plymouth a world leader in marine research.

One of the first new medical schools to open in the UK for more than 30 years is here. The Peninsula Medical School and the expanded Derriford Hospital with its associated science and medi-parks, make Plymouth a key location for groundbreaking medical technologies.
