On Friday the 27th April George Osborne visited Bristol to help us officially launch the Bristol Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone.
Mr Osborne was joined by city leaders and around 200 businesses at the event in the heart of the site on Plot 3, near Bristol Temple Meads Station, at the end of April.
The event represented the first step of the transformation of the Enterprise Zone area into a thriving hub for media-related, creative and digital technology companies, which is expected to deliver almost 17,000 jobs over 25 years.
Initial estimates suggest that more than 250 businesses could be accommodated here, which would be delivered alongside more than 240,000 sq m of new or refurbished space, featuring offices, research and development space, new homes and shops.
