How White City became a £6bn hub for life sciences and innovation - and Imperial Incubator's home... 🏢 Like many great ideas, it all started with a bold vision crafted in a London pub! 🍺 Hammersmith & Fulham Council leader Stephen Cowan 🇬🇧🇺🇦 and Councillor Professor Andrew Jones were inspired by the success of global innovation hubs like Silicon Valley. Partnering with Imperial College London, businesses and government led to a new campus, cutting-edge research facilities and high-quality lab spaces for startups and scaleups such as Incubator graduate Sixfold Bioscience. White City Innovation District's success is a testament to the power of bold ideas, strategic partnerships such as Upstream Nexus and Scale Space and a shared commitment to inclusive growth. We’re excited to be part of the area's continued transformation in 2025! #WhiteCity #RegionalDevelopment #InnovationHub #LifeSciences #LabSpace #StartupSupport #YourSpacetoGrow https://lnkd.in/egzhW2mE
