About EIC

Located in Telford in the heart of Shropshire, we are centrally located for excellent links all around the UK and tenants can benefit from business assistance and services from a regional University that encourages innovation.

A little bit of history…

Launched in 2006, the e-Innovation Centre (EIC) was a project funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), Advantage West Midlands (AWM) and University of Wolverhampton to support the creation and development of technology and innovative businesses. This state-of-the-art centre was voted ‘Best Designed Place’ by the Building Design Partnership in its 2006 Annual Review, with the design of the building being recognised for its architectural ambition, design, vision and innovation.

Since that time, the EIC has established itself as one of the leading business accommodation facilities in the region, with the modern and stylish office space highly prized by prospective tenants, leading to consistently high occupancy rates.

Today, it is home to some of the most innovative new companies around, many of whom have started as Launchpad users and gone on to grow and thrive in the exceptional business environment that EIC provides.
