Harlow’s economy is set to see a huge boost in the early part of 2022 with more high-quality businesses moving into the Harlow Innovation Park, which forms part of the town’s Enterprise Zone on London Road.
The Innovation Park, next to Newhall, is a forward-thinking development with first-class office space, high-quality med-tech buildings and a world-class scientific hub. There is much more investment planned, but already these developments are all creating high-skilled jobs for Harlow people and attracting even more investment to the town.
The Council is close to agreeing leases with a number of high-quality businesses, who will be joining electronics manufacturer Renesas, which has been operating out of the Innovation Park since March 2021.
Councillor Dan Swords, Cabinet Member for Regeneration, who recently visited the park said: “The Innovation Park will be booming this year as we see much of the behind-the-scenes work to bring businesses to the development are very close to coming to fruition. We are getting on with the job of boosting Harlow’s economy and creating high-skilled jobs and building on the town’s reputation as a successful research and development hub.
“2022 will be a booming year for the Innovation Park as it begins to fill up with world-class companies at the forefront of the science and tech industries joining us here in Harlow. And with them, they will bring new job opportunities for the town along with investment.
“We have extremely exciting plans for the Park with much more development to do but the future is extremely bright.”
