Home // Why Glasgow?
Glasgow is in the process of a major transformation. The city has reinvented itself in recent years and is a dynamic and multi-cultural place. It is one of Europe's most exciting locations and home to some of the UK's most successful regeneration programmes over the past 20 years.
The city is an ideal place to do business and its strong economic growth in recent years has created an environment that will maximise the benefits to any companies investing and locating here. Glasgow's skilled labour pool and competitively priced operating costs mean the city is well placed to withstand the rigours of current economic circumstances and can compete very effectively with other locations.
Glasgow is investing millions of pounds in growing the city's business base, attracting creative, educated and capable people, embracing all sectors of industry. Recent annual employment figures show that Glasgow has yet again been the fastest growing employment base of any city in the UK. The city is continuing to develop and attract new industry, through sustained investment in commercial property, the provision of transport and communications channels, and ensuring easy access to both internal and external markets.
Glasgow's modern, mixed economy has gained a well-deserved reputation for its success in economic performance and innovative urban regeneration. This is thanks to a good workforce and an excellent relationship between the public and private sectors.
Welcome to Glasgow, Scotland's most business friendly city.
