With the announcement of Teesside as one of the new Freeport locations and the establishment of the “government economic campus” at Darlington there is genuine hope, not only in respect of these two large scale initiatives but also in respect of the trickle-down economics and opportunities they will generate. Already the speculation around the creation of new jobs has been confirmed with GE Renewables Energy’s announcement in recent days and surely more will follow.

The region is very much on the up, spurred by the efforts of Tees Valley Mayor, Ben Houchen, and the Tees Valley Combined Authority and driven by the region’s entrepreneurial businesses and established professional service firms.
