Innovation Birmingham Case Study

The secure campus provides a range of flexible and affordable workspaces from coworking desks and serviced space to larger offices. Companies based at the Campus are supported with everything they need to grow including access to finance, talent, new markets and mentorship.

Why expanding

With many fast and high growth businesses based at the Campus, there is a need to create additional space, particularly for larger, more mature tech companies. The development of Enterprise Wharf will provide over 120,000 sq ft of new office space.

Why the West Midlands?

Companies located at Innovation Birmingham include Energym, the Gymshark backed green engineering company revolutionising the gym industry; and Learning Labs, the online language technology company which has recently secured £500,000 investment for new product development and international expansion.

Dr. David Hardman, Managing Director, Bruntwood SciTech – Birmingham commented:

“Innovation Birmingham is actively looking to bring together the public and private sectors, working in partnership to create the interfaces for people with ideas, technologies, expertise and experience to drive collaboration and promote innovation across the region.”
