Birmingham
Located in the heart of the West Midlands, Birmingham is the second-largest city in the UK with an approximate population of 1.1 million. Once known as the first manufacturing town in the world, the city is now a major international commercial centre and an important transport, retail, events and conference hub with the economy dominated by the service sector. A hotspot for business exhibitions, Birmingham attracts 42% of the UK's total conference and exhibition trade each year, making it a great choice for any business looking to advertise on a large scale. 40% of UK jewellery is produced in the city's famed Jewellery Quarter.
In recent years, Birmingham has seen investment into development, in particular the Bullring Shopping Centre, as well as the Library of Birmingham and the regeneration of old industrial areas such as Brindleyplace which is a rejuvenated hotspot for nightlife in the city. Many of the old streets, buildings and canals have also been restored, making Birmingham a modern and current place to be.
There are plenty of tourist destinations and attractions for visitors to explore including museums, galleries, historical monuments and more. Birmingham is home to a range of entertainment and leisure venues, including Europe's largest entertainment complex, Star City, as well as Europe's first out-of-city-centre entertainment complex, Resorts World Birmingham. The city has a vibrant and influential culture and arts scene with a forward-thinking and welcoming identity. The city has a thriving independent food sector with a large variety of street food vendors, breweries and farmers markets to visit. Birmingham is also the only city outside London to have five Michelin starred restaurants.
With five universities, Birmingham is the largest centre of higher education in the country outside London. Universities in the city are Aston University, the University of Birmingham, Birmingham City University, University College Birmingham and Newman University where roughly 84,000 students are enrolled.
