Impact Hub London Euston set to offer ‘affordable workspace’ to local community

Impact Hub London is in a ‘landmark’ new deal with British Land to open a new innovative workspace in partnership with London’s Knowledge Quarter at British Land’s Regent’s Place Campus, Warren Street.

Impact Hub London Euston at Regent’s Place will open its doors in April 2024. A growing social enterprise supported by a global network, it will offer under-served local communities ‘affordable workspace’ and tailored business support, as well as arranging impactful engagement activities throughout Camden.

London Euston is already part of the renowned Knowledge Quarter innovation district, home to ‘world-class’ institutions such as UCL, the British Museum, the Wellcome Trust, The Francis Crick Institute, and tech companies such as Meta, Google, LinkedIn and Benevolent AI.

Rooted firmly within the local community, Impact Hub London has a mission to support social, cultural, and economic development, while bridging the innovation gap between science and technology, and local communities. The Knowledge Quarter partnership will utilise the space to connect its partners with startups and community groups directly.

The new space is 10,645 sq ft and will include private offices, dedicated desks, flexible co-working spaces, meeting rooms and a large ‘state of the art’ event space. This will be the Knowledge Quarter’s new headquarters, moving from the British Library.

The Knowledge Quarter area is an ‘international leader’ in life sciences, data science and digital collections. As a result, this has led to new cross-disciplinary research and business startups within the area. A quarter of all London’s life sciences companies are based in the Knowledge Quarter, as well as one-third of all AI businesses in London.

Looking ahead at the next few years, the Knowledge Quarter will be home to Google’s European headquarters, the UK Dementia Research Institute, a new extension of the British Library, MSD’s Discovery Research Centre and a new site for Moorfield Eye Hospital.

The new launch follows the success of Impact Hub London’s King’s Cross location, which opened its doors in 2008 and has supported over 1,000 entrepreneurs, and delivered 15 business support programmes.

Devi Clark, Managing Director at Impact Hub London, commented: “Our London Euston location is a significant milestone in our mission to empower local communities across London.

“This dynamic and inclusive space will foster collaboration, and promote socially and environmentally beneficial innovation, making innovation accessible and inclusive for everyone.”
