Law firm Womble Bond Dickinson (WBD) has received £4m in funding from HSBC UK to support its move into Newcastle city centre to take up space in a new landmark office building.
The company, the region’s largest law firm, has been based on the Quayside for more than 20 years, with its 420 staff currently spread over two offices. Later this year, however, the firm is bringing them together under one roof at the new Spark building at Newcastle Helix.
Newcastle Helix represents a partnership between Newcastle City Council, Legal & General and Newcastle University, bringing together industry leaders, businesses, and top researchers to form an internationally renowned innovation cluster.
