The Sharp Project is located on just outside Manchester city centre in the North West of England and is close to air, motorway and public transport connections.
The Sharp Project is helping grow the creative and digital sector in the region in order to create job and career opportunities. These objectives are in-line with the City of Manchester’s economic growth strategy.
Manchester aims to be a digital global city with a labour pool of companies creating and innovating new business and new business models, to grow the economy, create jobs and compete on a wider stage. The Sharp Project is the first space created to begin to deliver this objective.
The £16.5million profit-for-purpose development is owned by Manchester City Council.
Completed in June 2011, it was funded by Manchester City Council, the Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA) and the European Regional Development Fund.
