Coventry Innovation Village
Located on the highly successful Coventry University Technology Park,
Coventry Innovation Village is a high quality landscaped development of ten office
units providing over 45,000 square feet of accommodation. The development,
although close to the City Centre, will have the characteristics of a prestigious
out-of-town business park.
The basic design concept of the development is to provide good quality office space
that will specifically support the activities and needs of hi-tech, knowledge
based industries.
In keeping with the contemporary theme set by the University at the TechnoCentre
and Innovation Centre, the units will externally appear as a mainly office-type
development but with elements reflecting the hi-tech emphasis.
Internally, the offices will be finished to provide raised access floors, suspended
ceilings, lifts and air conditioning.
The location benefits from the fact that it is a BT eLocation. The BT eLocations
programme is designed to offer top quality, resilient, high bandwidth
telecommunications services on the site.
Tenants will also be able to take full advantage of
the services and facilities that are already being
provided by Coventry University Enterprises Limited at
the Innovation Centre and TechnoCentre. These include
reception and message taking, business advice,
catering, cleaning, security and use of the excellent
Conference Centre.
The basic design concept of the
development is to provide good
quality office space that will
specifically support the
activities and needs of hi-tech,
knowledge based industries.

Coventry Technology ParkCoventry University Technology Park is situated south-east of Coventry City Centre,
a short distance from the main shopping area and transport facilities, and extends
to approximately 20 acres overall.
The surrounding infrastructure is good with dual carriageway access via the inner ring
road to A45, A46, M6, M69, M40, M42 and M1 motorways; other parts of the City are
easily accessible via the ring road. The recent construction of Deasy Road at the Park
provides a direct link to London Road.
Coventry Mainline Station is within a few minutes’ walk. Virgin Trains offer departures
to London Euston with a journey time of approximately 75 minutes, leaving every half
hour. Services are also available to Birmingham, going direct to the International
Airport, National Exhibition Centre and New Street Station.
Hotel facilities are offered on the park by Formula One and Ibis and there are other
hotels nearby. Leisure facilities available locally include the Rank “Leisure World”,
Esporta Racquet and Health Centre and Coventry and Hearsall Golf Clubs.
Occupier CharacteristicsIn order to sustain the hi-tech nature of the park, the University has placed a
restriction on the type of tenant allowed; the use of the building is to be
consistent with the UK Science Park Association’s user definition:
A Science Park is a business support and technology transfer initiative that:
• Encourages and supports the start up and incubation of innovation led, high
growth, knowledge based businesses;
• Provides an environment where larger and international business can develop
specific and close interactions with a particular centre of knowledge creation for
their mutual benefit;
• Has the operational links with centres of knowledge creation such as Universities,
Higher Education institutes and research organisations.
