New figures suggest Space Park Leicester has generated some £89 million for the economy in its first 12 months.
The £100 million development – led by the University of Leicester with backing from the Leicester and Leicestershire Enterprise Partnership and city council – builds on the university’s decades of expertise in space research, innovation and education.
It also comes as the Space Park joins a new Space City cluster on the northern edge of Leicester, that will create one of the biggest enterprise zones for space-related activities in the UK. The economic impact figures were provided by the university.
