WHY INVEST IN SHEFFIELD Sheffield is an economic powerhouse in the north of England, attracting businesses globally with a high employment rate, and excellent accessibility and connectivity. Around 2.1 million people live within a 60 minute commute of the city where growing key sectors include the creative and digital industries, low-carbon, and healthcare technologies. The city centre has undergone a radical transformation in recent years and offers a vibrant and cosmopolitan experience that rivals any European city.
Sheffield’s Thriving Economy Jobs in the city increased by 22% between 1995 and 2008
Over 65,000 students study at Sheffield’s two universities, including more than 7,000 international students. The city recently topped a list of university towns and cities that could benefit from more student accommodation: the universities are only able to provide 11,369 bedrooms to more than 46,890 full-time students, leaving a massive 76% looking for accommodation in the private rented sector. The naturally growing population and international student growth are key driving forces behind demand for quality purpose-built accommodation and, with no cap on the numbers who can study in the UK, Knight Frank forecasts this amount will increase by 15-20% over the next five years.
With an economy bigger than some European countries, the Sheffield City Region is a significant financial power. The region is home to almost 1.8 million people and has an output of more than ÂŁ24.7 billion per year.
A vibrant and CULTURED CITY Sheffield is a richly diverse, multicultural city that has earned its reputation for being one of the friendliest and safest in the UK. The UK’s fourth largest city, Sheffield offers a unique blend of both urban lifestyle and rural retreat. The city has been going through something of an ‘urban renaissance’ in recent years, making the most of its grand industrial heritage and architecture, and reinventing itself as a city of European significance. Sheffield has something for everyone: a vibrant pub and club culture; high street and boutique shopping; restaurants to suit all tastes; the largest theatre complex outside London; art galleries; iconic music venues; and sports facilities, including three climbing centres and the world’s deepest diving pool. Yet a third of the city also lies within the beautiful Peak District National Park. This combination of an exciting, bustling, cosmopolitan city within an outstanding area of natural beauty makes Sheffield a truly unique and inspirational place to live, work and study.
