Bristol & Bath market reviewThe smart city region of the future

By 2020, Bristol & Bath will be a leading European ‘smart region’, using technology to build a more vibrant economy, cleaner environment and better quality of life.

Powering this transformation are world-class centres of excellence specialising in big data, space, robotics, synthetic biology, regenerative medicine, agriscience, advanced materials and energy.

The region is particularly well placed to capitalise on civil aerospace orders from China and India; extend its lead in low-carbon wind, wave and tidal energy; and grow its blossoming post-production industry thanks to an influx of fresh talent from local universities, independent film makers, documentary producers and music video producers.

And strong composites research facilities will tap the global composites market, expected to grow to a value of £17.47bn by the year 2016.
