companies and is one of the few true innovation districts
in the UK.
• An increasingly diverse economy, from large companies
and institutions to new start-ups and entrepreneurs.
•At the heart of health devolution
A decade of opportunity
By 2025, Corridor Manchester will be Manchester's
cosmopolitan hub and world-class innovation district, where talented people from the city and across the world
learn, create, work, socialise, live and do business; contributing to the economic and social dynamism of one of
