Summer of Success at e-space

Cllr Ron Bradney, who is lead member for economic development at East Cambridgeshire District Council, said: "We all know how difficult a time it has been for the economy as the recession has bit hard. However there is a general feeling that things are starting to turn around and we can just look at the recent success at the e-space business centres.
"Our occupancy rate currently stands at 92 per cent which is a great endorsement of the facility but also means we can still fit any interested companies in The centres pride themselves in creating communities within the buildings. Our small start-up firms not only rely on us to provide things such as IT infrastructure, reception and postal services, they also benefit from the fact that we have open spaces where people can meet and share ideas."
