1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>Support <\/b><\/p>\n

Edinburgh is more than happy to have you! The city offers a huge amount of support to welcome those who want to set up business there. Companies like Business Gateway run local workshops to help get you started: helping with finance, recruitment and business growth to name but a few.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>Transport<\/b><\/p>\n

Getting from A to B has never really been a problem in Edinburgh, and even less so with the regeneration of its transport. A 16-stop tram service is set to open in summer 2014, alongside The Edinburgh promenade now in development – a walk & cycleway stretching 17km from East (Joppa) to West (Cramond).<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>Professional population<\/b><\/p>\n

Edinburgh really is the place to go if you’re looking for a high standard of staff. 43% of its population holds a degree level or professional qualification, the highest percentage of professionals in the UK.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>Financial hot spot<\/b><\/p>\n

Edinburgh is the second largest financial and administrative centre in the United Kingdom after London<\/a>, in fact Financial Services now account for a third of all commercial office space in the city.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>Award winning<\/b><\/p>\n

Proof? No problem. Edinburgh holds more than just a few awards to support its status as a powerhouse. In 2010\/2011 it was awarded the Top Location for Economic Potential award, and in 2012\/2013 was named Best Large city for fDi strategy. But let’s not forget that the city undoubtedly holds a place in our hearts, too. In 2013 this beloved city won The Guardian’s Favourite UK City for the staggering 12th<\/sup> year in a row.<\/p>\n
