Forbes Magazine carried out a recent survey to find out the best cities for business and London ranked number one. There were a number of factors considered including the amount of foreign investment and the number of headquarters per capita. London is in fact home to 68 of the biggest companies on Forbes Global 2000 list.
The survey considered how many business niches there were and London came top in Europe for technology start-ups according to the Genome project who estimates that there are 3000 tech companies in London. Google also has a huge presence there with their second biggest office there. Only their office in Silicon Valley is bigger.
London has great transport links and has a central location making it very accessible by air, train and car. All of these factors along with its business culture, racial diversity and abundance of great venues makes London the perfect place to hold a conference. Conference venue hire in London is fairly simple with most venues available to hire on an ad hoc basis.
Joel Kotkin, for Forbes Magazine, said that London was “a preferred domicile for the global rich, London is not only the historic capital of the English language, which contributes to its status as a powerful media hub and major advertising center, but it’s also the birthplace of the cultural, legal and business practices that define global capitalism.”
Tony Steedman from W12 Conferences, said: “London is a great city and the perfect place to hold a conference. W12 Conferences is based in West London close East Acton tube station making it easy to get to. Our rooms are modern, bright and airy with a good look and feel and modern audio visual equipment.”
