Manchester is a city of startling
contrasts and significant challenges. It is the north west’s
regional centre for finance, commerce, retail, culture and
leisure, home to a major international airport and one of
the largest student populations in Europe. It is
transforming itself from an industrial city dependent on
manufacturing to a thriving, modern, dynamic, international
city
Whilst manufacturing remains important,
Manchester has attracted growth in the knowledge - based
economy and is in the top ten of European cities for
business location.
