Exciting times lie ahead as the UK government launches England’s second Investment Zone in Liverpool, with a strong focus on life sciences.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The \u00a3320 million investment<\/a> is poised to drive economic growth across the UK, with Liverpool City Region emerging as a cornerstone for pioneering life science research and innovation clusters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The government has launched England\u2019s second Investment Zone which could deliver 4,000 jobs across Liverpool, Runcorn, St. Helens, Maghull and Prescot over the next 5 years. An initial \u00a310 million investment will be made by a US pharmaceutical manufacturer, to enhance its capabilities in manufacturing a drug used to treat cancers, arthritis and skin conditions. This investment in Liverpool\u2019s existing Speke Pharma cluster \u2013 home to one of the UK\u2019s leading regions for bioprocessing – is the first step in unlocking a total pipeline of up to \u00a3320 million of further private funding from a range of investors in the life sciences sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The surge in the life science sector due to the Investment Zone will undoubtedly lead to an increased demand for state-of-the-art life science fit-outs. As the sector prepares to welcome over 4,000 new jobs in the next five years, aligning workspaces with this burgeoning demand becomes imperative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n EDB excels in creating modern lab and life science fit-outs tailored to our clients’ needs. This year, we partnered with Recircle<\/a>, a recycling and biotechnology firm, to consolidate their operations into one cutting-edge facility on Daresbury Sci \u2013 Tech Park. By closely collaborating with their team, we transformed a CAT A office space into a fully functional CAT B life science facility, quadrupling their operational capacity.<\/p>\n\n\nWhat is the second investment zone?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
