London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) has an ambition to make Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park a truly inclusive Innovation District with local, diverse talent at its heart. To achieve this, we are making a significant investment over the next five years to establish a Good Growth Hub (GGH), an exciting new space at Hackney Bridge at the Park, which will be an exemplar in the design and delivery of demand-led skills and employment training.
We will be launching an open competition to appoint a GGH Service Provider, who shares our vision and passion. The provider will work with us and our Borough and employer partners to establish the Hub and its services and to ensure that local people have access to opportunities in some of the fastest growing sectors in the country, whether that be at Here East, East Bank or beyond.
Building on the success of LLDC’s East Works programme, the Good Growth Hub will connect businesses with local talent through a wide range of employment, skills and enterprise activities. The GGH will focus on developing talent for the growing creative, cultural and technology sectors on and around the Park but will have the flexibility to respond to other growth sectors over time.
On Monday 8 June we held a webinar for prospective bidders interested in the opportunity. The webinar covered:
- An introduction to the LLDC and the GGH project
- The GGH Service Provider requirement
- Funding available and match funding requirements
- An overview of the GGH Space
- The procurement process
A recording of the webinar can be viewed below. You can also download a copy of the presentation and FAQs.
