A key component for the establishment of a vibrant new settlement, incorporating wider regeneration and transformative place-making, accommodating high growth SME’s from across the region.

TechForest is a unique site capitalising upon the commercial benefits of being an exemplar community, embracing ‘green’ and ‘sustainability’ principles which provide differentiation alongside the existing business base, a key component for the establishment of a vibrant new settlement, incorporating wider regeneration and transformative place-making.

Whitehill & Bordon is a successful and well-known location for enterprise, particularly SMEs, excelling through an open for business approach and unique supporting infrastructure.   The site focuses on developing specialisms linked to large residential development, leveraging access to proportionately affordable new and existing housing stock, as a major incentive to inward investors and relocating businesses.

The location of the site reinforces the competitive advantages around the cost of labour, educated workforce whilst ensuring a holistic approach to commercial property stock improvement is undertaken to embed the area’s role as a quality place to do business.
