The London powerhouse.
With investors committing £2.2bn into London offices in Q1 2023, it is clear that London is a powerhouse of global significance.
With its education pathways, linguistic capabilities and the natural advantage of the UK time zone, it comes as no surprise that London attracts more HQs than anywhere else in Europe.

of funding invested into the locality through the Aldgate BID, further-improving the community, security and culture of the area
Aldgate represents that rare thing – an exciting mix of tradition and modernity.
The area offers great value, desirable amenities and unparalleled connectivity.
Aldgate – the key link in London’s ‘Growth Belt’.
Aldgate is reaping the rewards of a location that straddles both the ‘Growth Belt’ and the City of London.
Historically centred around ‘Silicon Roundabout’ the vibrant, creative extension of this zone now stretches from King’s Cross, through Shoreditch, Aldgate and towards the south-eastern City fringe.
Tenant migration from more traditional areas of the city to the ‘Growth Belt’ has been a clear trend in recent years.
Connected to London, the nation and the world.
Whilst there is so much on your doorstep, 60 Aldgate also sits minutes away from the rest of London. What’s more, a revolutionary upgrade to the City’s transport means that Heathrow can be accessed at pace, opening up the location to a truly global market.
