Construction of £16.7 million hub expected by end of year

Innovative businesses are being sought to make their home at Peterborough’s new £16.7 million research and development centre that sits adjacent to the city’s new university.

Work has started to market the three storey building – the first dedicated R&D space to be built in Peterborough – worldwide as construction continues with completion expected by the end of the year.

It is hoped the research and development centre, which will have the triple Queen’s Award winning Photocentric as its anchor tenant, will help create a flow of new job-creating businesses into the city.
