Middlesbrough is the city centre of the Tees Valley, a combined authority in the North East of England. Sitting on the south bank of the River Tees, it offers a vibrant city centre, a robust talent pipeline and a competitive advantage through low operating and accommodation costs relative to the rest of the country.

The consumer sector in Middlesbrough is one of the best performing in the UK, ahead of nearby cities and those around the UK (2018 UK Consumer Powerhouse report), and it is amongst the top 10 small cities in Europe for foreign direct investment strategy (fDi Intelligence 2018/19).

From connectivity and skills base through to business support and infrastructure, Middlesbrough offers the perfect platform for your business to succeed.

Middlesbrough is a key economic contributor for the Tees Valley, and is working with the Tees Valley Combined Authority (TVCA) to drive economic growth and jobs creation through their devolved responsibilities: transport, infrastructure, skills, business investment, housing, and culture and tourism.
