About us

This is where it all began! The Growth Hub Gloucester opened its doors 11 years ago in 2014, the only UK university to have a co-located Growth Hub on campus. In 2018, the Hub moved to the brand new School of Business, Computing and Social Sciences at Oxstalls Campus.

Since this time, we have welcomed more than 30,000 people through our doors and propelled thousands of local businesses towards their growth aspirations – resulting in an economic boost estimated at £21.5 million, set to increase to £48.4 million by 2025.

The university’s state-of-the-art locations are the perfect place for businesses to collaborate, network, and exchange ideas in a vibrant, relaxed atmosphere. We welcome freelancers, entrepreneurs, business owners, and everything in between!

Our strategic alliance with University of Gloucestershire provides even greater advantages with access to academic experts, specialist courses, research, and student talent. There’s no better place to build your business surrounded by academic minds and industry leading research.
