CBC Limited and the landowners support the creation of inclusive employment and business opportunities. There is a need for spaces for small and medium companies and incubation spaces across Cambridge and part of the purpose of Campus expansion is to allow for such spaces alongside other flexible business uses to encourage spin-offs from existing institutions and growth of new opportunities. The expansion of the Campus into the identified Area of Major Change is an opportunity to create inclusive employment and business opportunities close to an existing employment cluster, which provides an essential opportunity to foster innovation.
