South Yorkshire powered the nation through the industrial revolution with its mining and steel industries, and it isn’t stopping now: the county is home to the UK’s first investment zone, and to innovation clusters in nuclear tech, hydrogen, and sustainable aviation fuel development.
South Yorkshire’s prominent position at the forefront of advanced manufacturing and research is having a huge impact on development in the region, from Waverley’s Advanced Manufacturing Park in Rotherham, to plans for 400m sq ft at Gateway East next to the soon-to-reopen Doncaster Sheffield Airport, through to developments such as the 100-acre Runway Park.
Transport in the region is also central to its development plans, with upgraded train routes, stations, and tram funding serving to unlock housing and mixed-use development opportunities.
Significant standalone projects such as Forgemasters and regeneration housing schemes like the 3,000 home Attercliffe framework are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what’s going on in South Yorkshire.
So don’t miss out on your chance to hear all about it: tickets for the event cost £88+VAT, although local authorities and registered providers can purchase tickets at a 50% discount.
Breakfast and lunch are included, providing plenty of opportunity for business development.
