Small to Medium Enterprises make up 70% of all investment in London in 2009!

So looking at the new statistics released by our team at Think London last week, small to medium size enterprises are accounting for 70% of all new business investment in the capital; either setting up business in London or expanding business in London in 2009.

The great news is that 35 of these businesses have been assisted by our Touchdown London service, which we are very proud of. It’s not a surprise the businesses have been attracted to the Touchdown London service – it enables overseas companies to take advantage of up to 12 months free office space and facilities, London recruitment and business development advice.

In addition to this our London consultants will act as dedicated advisors to support firms, alongside our commercial partners, through the process of establishing a presence in the UK’s capital.

In addition, those who we’ve helped with relocation in London who were surveyed said they were operational within 2 weeks, with estimated time saving of 2-3 months. Not bad at all I think you’ll agree!

Both the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson and Think London Chief Executive, Michael Charlton agreed that London provides a highly skilled workforce for employers, lower commercial property rates and the depreciation of Sterling means it’s the perfect time for SMEs to be moving to London.

However, don’t take they’re word for it, why not contact us today and see how we can help you and your business in 2010!
