Regional Context
The North West is at the centre of the UK’s housing and regeneration ambitions. With Greater Manchester leading major regional growth through its Places for Everyone plan and large-scale regeneration projects such as Victoria North, the area is redefining how homes and communities are delivered.
From transforming brownfield sites to building new sustainable neighbourhoods, the region is combining strategic planning with investment in infrastructure and innovation. Local authorities across the North West are embracing data-driven approaches and digital planning to unlock land supply, streamline development, and strengthen collaboration with developers and investors.
As housing demand continues to rise, the North West is uniquely positioned to demonstrate how regional coordination and technology can accelerate delivery and create more connected, affordable, and sustainable places to live.
The Manchester Regional Innovation Roadshow will explore how digital tools and cross-sector partnerships are helping councils and industry deliver housing at scale and support long-term regional prosperity.
