The £1.5billion Leeds Innovation Arc will be a city centre science park, formed around the city’s leading universities, the forthcoming, state-of-the-art, new adult’s and children’s hospitals, and major private sector partners.
The Arc will be home to some of the biggest public and private sector organisations in the North of England, including British Library North and the new Innovation Village, creating a world-class hub for research, innovation and technology in health and life sciences in Leeds. It offers prime investment opportunities with 200,000m2 of innovation space, with potential for 3,000 new homes and up to 220,000m2 of public realm improvements, and two new city parks.
