Birmingham has been named as one of the top 10 cities in the World and is one of the leading European business destinations, with a £90bn regional economy. It has seen a population increase of 300,000 in the last decade and is the youngest city in Europe, with under 25’s making up 40% of its population. The city has exceptional connections to local, national and international destinations.
The proposed HS2 rail link will potentially cut travel time between Birmingham and London to under 50 minutes, bringing an estimated £1.5bn and 22,000 jobs to the region. The city also hosts 5 universities with over 73,000 students.
The city has been selected to host major events like the 2022 Commonwealth Games, which has a huge impact on the city, supporting job creation and driving change that leaves a glowing mark for years.
