Alconbury Weald Enterprise Campus is sponsoring Team Cambridgeshire and Peterborough at this year’s UKREiiF 2026, highlighting its position to support sustainable growth, investment and innovation in one of the UK’s fastest-growing regional economies.
Representing the region at the national Real Estate Investment and Infrastructure Forum, Team Cambridgeshire and Peterborough will showcase a bold vision for long-term growth and investment opportunities across the county, with ambitions to triple the size of its economy by 2050.
“We are looking forward to standing alongside partners Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority and Huntingdonshire District Council to promote the county as a leading destination for businesses and families looking to invest and put down roots.”
A major focus of the partnership is the ongoing transformation of Alconbury Weald Enterprise Campus from a former Cold War airfield into a strategic employment and innovation hub at the centre of the North Hunts Opportunity Zone and emerging Defence Cluster.
Alconbury Weald is also supporting economic growth through the delivery of homes, jobs and wider opportunities, alongside discussions around sustainable growth and the importance of embedding nature and landscape into placemaking.
