The demand for offices in the north west of England could be set to grow significantly after it was revealed that a £1 billion boost to the Regional Growth Fund could create hundreds of thousands of jobs.
The programme was launched this year and is set to run until 2014, supporting projects that lever private sector investment, create sustainable employment and help the economy grow.
Deputy prime minister Nick Clegg visited the north west this week following the announcement of the new funds in the chancellor's recent Autumn Statement, to reveal that there will be at least further two rounds of bidding.
He stated: ""This additional billion pound boost for British businesses means the Regional Growth Fund will create an estimated half a million jobs before the end of this parliament."
Business secretary Vince Cable added: "This fund is helping businesses across the country to create jobs - giving them the support they need to turn new ideas into actions that will drive their growth and future success."
And it may be that the developments lead to growth for small businesses in the north west and the rest of the UK that they may not have been able to achieve otherwise.
If your business needs a new office in the north west, why not take a look at the vast portfolio of office space owned and managed by Magnus?
