Key Competitive Attractions
Manchester is internationally renowned for its transformation from an industrial powerhouse into a flourishing, modern, knowledge-based economy. Our vision is that by 2015 Manchester City will be world-class, placed among the top 10 business cities in Europe, with greater productivity than the national average.
Ideally situated to promote the city's trade and investment opportunities world-wide, Manchester City Council works to attract a variety of world-famous sporting and cultural events. International investors, companies and governments learn from Manchester's regeneration success, and we are learning from other cities' experience to guide our own future plans.
Manchester's unsurpassed communications and infrastructure include a legion of motorways leading to all areas of the country, and Manchester International Airport and Liverpool Docks at your toes, providing exceptional international connections.
