Last October’s inaugural event was highly successful, giving investors an insight into the Sussex’s premier economic hotspot. According to the latest Centre for Cities Report (January 2018) Crawley ranked #1 in the UKwith the highest employment rate of 89% of residents. The area is also economically significant for the following:

 

• 106,000 jobs - the 2nd highest job density outside Central London
• 25% of West Sussex GVA yet only 2% of the land mass
• In top 10 of UK’s most productive economies

Last year’s tour generated lots of interest and press coverage e.g. http://bit.ly/2Fd7k5y (Brighton Argus) and http://bit.ly/2obrYvA (Commercial News Media) and several notable new commercial property developments in the town have been unveiled in the intervening months.

The tour is organised by White Label Creative, the award-winning marketing and events agency which devised the long-standing Croydon Investor Tour on which the Crawley event is based.

Outside of Central London the town is one of the most economically vibrant and successful in the country.”
