Bidwells has bolstered its Creative Places team with the appointment of Sue Foxley and Harry Blevins.
Foxley, who will join the Creative Places team on a part-time basis, will focus on leading edge research and data trends in science and technology as well as providing valuable insight to clients on ecosystem strategy through Creative Places consultancy mandates. She will continue to lead the research function across the Bidwells Group.
Blevins will join the Creative Places team on a full-time basis focusing his time on London specialist science and technology leasing and business development in this area. He will also retain a role in strategic Cambridge projects to promote Bidwells’ presence in advising around the connectivity and synergies between Cambridge and King’s Cross.
Liam Nicholls, partner, Creative Places, said: “Our expansion of the team this year is off the back of confidence in our capability to advise an excellent roster of clients on major projects and transactions shaping the UK R&D landscape, particularly in the AI and healthcare innovation space. Adding Harry to the team, with a focus on London and its connectivity to Cambridge, builds on our growing presence in these core markets. Sue brings a deep understanding of science trends, alongside a thoughtful, data and research-led approach to strategic consultancy and agency mandates. We welcome them both to the team and are excited about the opportunity this brings.”
Foxley added: “Our research tells us a great deal about where science and technology is heading, which fields are growing, what those organisations need, and where capital is moving. In Creative Places that intelligence feeds directly into clients’ real estate strategy, from targeting the right occupiers through to the places and spaces that are built and how they’re positioned. This is research at its most effective and I’m really looking forward to working with clients on innovation projects across the UK.”
