Clyde Gateway has appointed Ryden to lead on the occupational agency and marketing of its £500m innovation masterplan.
The masterplan forms a central pillar of Clyde Gateway’s long-term vision to transform the East End of Glasgow and South Lanarkshire into a nationally significant hub for advanced industries.
The masterplan will deliver a mix of flexible workspaces, laboratories, research facilities, business accommodation, public realm and access to low carbon heat networks.
Ryden will support Clyde Gateway to bring forward space that meets the needs of modern occupiers, while also working closely with the wider adviser team as the masterplan evolves.
Angela Rowley, head of property and development at Clyde Gateway, said: “The Innovation masterplan is a key driver of Clyde Gateway’s next phase of growth, and appointing Ryden reflects both the scale of our ambition and the momentum we are building. Ryden brings a deep understanding of the Glasgow market, strong occupier relationships and a proven track record in supporting complex, mixed-use regeneration. Their role will be critical in helping us connect the opportunity with the right businesses and accelerate delivery on the ground.”
Gillian Giles, partner at Ryden, added: “Clyde Gateway’s Innovation masterplan is one of the most exciting regeneration-led commercial opportunities in Scotland. We’re delighted to be working with the team to help shape and promote a pipeline that genuinely responds to what occupiers are looking for. Our focus will be on bringing strong market insight, clear positioning and active engagement with the business community to support Clyde Gateway’s ambition to create a thriving innovation-led destination.”
Clyde Gateway is currently in talks with joint venture partners and funders, as it seeks to accelerate delivery across the wider masterplan.
