Growing interest from firms wanting to set up in Newcastle city centre could see major jobs announcements in the coming weeks plus new developments being put in motion to house them, a development agency has revealed.
InvestNewcastle, part of NewcastleGateshead Initiative, has encouraged a number of companies to set up bases in Newcastle in recent months, with announcements from overseas firms Monstarlab, Thoughtworks and Arctic Wolf bringing hundreds of jobs to the city.
Those projects and more mean the city needs more office space, according to InvestNewcastle director Jennifer Hartley, sparking talks to add three new buildings to the Helix science and business park.
