The Corridor Board

Our board has representation from key organisations, both public and private sector, that have a strong commitment to the Corridor and its future.

All partners recognise that if the UK is to remain a leading global economy, investment needs to be concentrated in education, science and technology to position the country at the vanguard of high-value, creative and innovative activity.

The unique concentration of knowledge-based assets on the Corridor means it has the potential to be the economic powerhouse of the North West region and indeed the UK.
