Welcome to Manchester
- the original modern city
- Manchester was the world’s
first industrial city. The cotton industries extraordinary
growth drove the town's expansion and put it at the
heart of a global network of manufacturing and trade.
- Manchester has always been
synonymous with science. It was here that Rutherford first
split the atom, it was here that the first test-tube baby
was born, and it was here that Geim and Novoselov, winners
of the Nobel Prize, discovered the new wonder material
graphene. Now Manchester is leading the way in sectors
including smart textiles, digital health, and quantum dot
technology.
- The underlying vision for
Manchester is to be a Top 20 global city by 2035.
- In the last 10 years,
Manchester has achieved more growth in its office market
than any other regional city – 3.7m sqft of new build and
major refurbishment.
- Manchester is commonly
known as England’s second city. Once a powerhouse of
industry, it is now a major cultural hub, famous for its
many fantastic nightclubs, extensive libraries, and glorious
sporting history. The city’s skyline is the perfect
representation of the atmosphere, with modern structures
enlivening historical streets.
