science quarter called The Core, with
renewable energy and manufacturing
businesses prevalent. The North
East Enterprise Zone covers 10 sites
within the three key areas of the Low
Carbon Vehicle Corridor, the North
Bank of River Tyne and Port of Blyth.

As well as the highest start-up rates
in the north-west, Manchester
has a high volume of creative and
digital businesses, earning it the
soubriquet "Shoreditch of the
North". It's also home to the biggest
university campus in Europe (and five
universities in total), affording access
to talent. Manchester has a strong
business support for start-ups and

* AS ANALYSED BY THE CENTRE FOR ENTREPRENEURS

he number of SMEs in the UK
has increased by two million
since 2000 - a staggering 59% rise.
Business formation reached a record
high in 2016 according to Companies
House data*, with a total of 657,790
new businesses getting off the ground
last year. After record-breaking
start-up statistics for 2014 and 2015,
the number of new businesses in the
UK looks likely to carry on rising.
While over 30% of 2016's startups (205,325) were registered in
London, new businesses can flourish
anywhere. When looking for the best
location for your start-up, it makes
sense to seek out an area that offers
great infrastructure, access to talent
and support - and somewhere similar
businesses are already thriving.
