Imperial is embedded in our local communities across West London, working with public sector, charity and industry partners to address local challenges, foster innovation and creativity and enhance cultural life.
A key pillar of Imperial’s new strategy, Science for Humanity, is the Imperial WestTech Corridor which has a clear objective – to become a catalyst for investment, jobs and inclusive growth across West London. Imperial will convene a unique set of innovation assets to create a vibrant new ecosystem of globally competitive scale that is a powerful engine for investment, inclusive economic growth and job creation.
The Corridor capitalises on our major local innovation assets – Albertopolis, home to our South Kensington Campus, the White City Innovation District, which hosts our White City Deep Tech Campus and Hammersmith Hospital Campus, the rapidly growing Paddington Life Sciences innovation cluster centred around our St Mary’s Hospital Campus, Old Oak and Park Royal and our Silwood Park eco-campus.
