Objective 2: To seed a new business environment within Manor Royal that will help position the business district as INNOVATION district.
Objective 3: To build a learning environment in which technical skills and knowhow are nurtured and deployed
Objective 4: To forge stronger links across the wider innovation ecosystem across and beyond the Coast to Capital area to help to position Manor Royal as a nationally significant innovation hub.
