Situated in a prime location close to the city centre and boasting extensive infrastructure, Durham Innovation District is already home to established businesses such as Atombank and Waterstons Ltd. The district is just a short walk from the Milburngate development and the new Durham University Business School. It also offers excellent connectivity, located just minutes from the railway station, served by TransPennine and East Coast Mainlines, and only 10 minutes by car from the A1(M) motorway.
The next phase of development includes a 37 acre (15 ha) campus at Aykley Heads, offering high-quality infrastructure and premium office space for businesses. This site is already home to the Durham City Incubator, which supports university spin-outs, high-growth potential start-ups, and will be home to a cutting edge supercomputer, in partnership with Durham University.
