£1.4 Million Funding Boost for Hope Centre

The North West Development Agency (NWDA) has provided £1.4 million funding for Hope's Education, Innovation and Enterprise Centre.

The centre will enable Liverpool Hope University to support entrepreneurship, including graduate and other spin-out developments and will act as a foundation for further developments and as an infrastructure support vehicle for outreach delivery in the workplace and community venues.

The aim of the centre is to increase innovation and enable businesses to benefit from the knowledge, research and expertise of the region’s higher education institutions. All of this is part of Hope's own commitment to the knowledge economy which now includes a total investment of over £20m to support businesses in the North West.
