UK and international investors and developers have been presented with £20 billion worth of opportunities to invest in a diverse range of housing, commercial, regeneration and infrastructure projects across the West Midlands.

Building on success of previous years, the West Midlands Investment Prospectus 2023 showcases the profile and prestige of investable opportunities across the region.

This includes 29 schemes covering world-leading sectors, transformational infrastructure and exceptional development opportunities within the metropolitan West Midlands and surrounding towns.

Stuart Penn, Regional Managing Director for Lovell Partnerships, Andy Street, Mayor of the West Midlands, Anette Simpson, Director of Development & Partnerships at Legal & General and Cllr Peter Hughes, Sandwell Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration and WMCA launched the £20bn Investment Prospectus at The Junction housing development in Oldbury.

The opportunities set out in the prospectus have been identified in partnership with local authorities across the WMCA and reflect the ambition of leaders to level up the region’s cities and towns.

The prospectus offers investors and developers the chance to breathe new life into local communities and deliver transformational growth, putting private and public sector partnerships at the heart of the WMCA’s ambition to become a more prosperous and better-connected region.

The Marketing to Contractors & Housebuilders feature (which is sponsored by South East Construction Expo) in the Sectors section of our Directory provides an overview of the sector, including
details of its various media channels and events, together with access to our downloadable database of those with responsibility for procurement at key firms.
