Proof that Cornwall’s business community is alive and well was demonstrated at the packed out ‘I’m Glad I came to Cornwall Club’ event at St Michael’s Hotel & Spa in Falmouth on Thursday 24th April, sponsored by Coodes.
Over 25 businesses gathered at London’s leading business venue, One Aldwych to hear Professor Alan Livingston of University College Falmouth speak at the ‘I’d Rather Be in Cornwall Club’.
As Cornwall Business Week kicks off, businesses based in the county have another reason to be proud. Cornwall is a hotbed of creative businesses, and three of its towns are predicted to be in the top ten creative hotspots of the future, a study by Cornwall Research revealed today.
Britain’s traditional business towns are under threat from growing competition from their country cousins, a study revealed today. New research shows that businesses outside of busy city centres benefit from increased creativity from their workforce – and this ‘creativity gap’ is increasing. Of the 50 locations predicted to be hubs for innovative businesses in coming years, almost half are in rural locations, and seven places in the top ten are located well away from major cities – a significant swing away from the traditional city-centric pattern of Britain’s businesses.
