Invest in Nottingham is once again organising Team Nottingham and Nottinghamshire’s attendance at UKREiiF. Do you want to be part of it?

Councillor Ben Bradley, Leader of Nottinghamshire County Council and MP for Mansfield joins Invest in Nottingham’s panel at The UK’s Real Estate Investment and Infrastructure Forum (UKREiiF).

Nottingham will showcase “the UK’s biggest city centre development opportunity” through a dedicated panel discussion, focused on the intense period of economic regeneration that is set to take place, with The Island Quarter and the transformational Broad Marsh development, leading the way. In addition, the city has secured a slot within the exclusive Investor Centre, a dedicated area for city leaders to highlight opportunities to domestic and international investors.

It was fantastic to today be at the unveiling of the Vision for Broad Marsh. Nottingham’s independent Greater Broad Marsh Advisory Group, established by Nottingham City Council in March 2021, has today published its Vision and recommendations for one of the most significant City Centre development sites in the UK and the “once in many generations” opportunity for Nottingham to lead the way in city centre regeneration following the impacts of Covid-19 and online retailing. 

Laurence Henry, the well-known Nottingham chef and former MasterChef winner, has been named chef patron at Canal Turn – the stunning new restaurant and entertainment space currently on site at The Island Quarter.

For much of the last decade, I’ve spent my morning commutes walking through Nottingham city centre, looking at the multiple sites earmarked for development and hoping things would come forward, only to get frustrated at the lack of progress. Having now spent the last 11 months commuting between rooms in my house, so much has happened that I think I might struggle to recognise my city when I return!
