Bruntwood SciTech, the UK’s leading developer and creator of city-wide innovation ecosystems and specialist environments, has been confirmed as a Prolific North Partner for 2024.
With a network spanning across nine campus locations and 31 city centre innovation hubs, worth £1.5bn, Bruntwood SciTech helps companies – particularly those in the science, tech and innovation sectors – to form, scale and grow.
As the UK’s largest dedicated property platform, Bruntwood SciTech provides the ‘connective tissue’ between world-leading research universities, large hospital NHS Trusts, strong civic leadership, and high-growth enterprise.
On returning for a third year as a Prolific North Partner, Deb Hetherington, Head of Innovation and Partnerships at Bruntwood SciTech, said: “Prolific North is at the forefront of connecting and elevating tech, digital, and creative businesses across the North of England and we’re excited to continue our multi-year partnership in 2024.
“Bruntwood SciTech continues to be a catalyst for growth and innovation. Our 4.8m sq ft of world-class workspace and specialist business support nurtures a community of over 1,100 high-growth startups, scaleups, and global businesses.”
Hetherington continued: “Following our recent £500m investment from our shareholders Bruntwood, Legal & General and new partner Greater Manchester Pension Fund (GMPF), we’re in a fantastic position to continue to expand our city-wide ecosystems in Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Birmingham, Glasgow, and Cambridge where ideas are born, businesses thrive, and economies are powered through innovation. Our partnership with Prolific North will offer us additional opportunities to reach, support, and connect with these vibrant sectors.”
Bruntwood SciTech becomes the fourth confirmed Prolific North Partner for 2024, joining digital brand experience agency Tall, independent recruitment consultancy Better Placed and Leeds-based integrated agency HUB.
Prolific North’s Partners will get the chance to feature on Prolific North throughout the year, join awards ceremonies, be a part of key industry events and contribute to wider conversations within the industry.
