Birmingham is a dynamic, prosperous city at the heart of the United Kingdom. We have a growing international presence with established links across Europe and growing connections to China, India and North America.
Our city is modern and forward thinking. We continue to lead the way with major regeneration and development schemes – creating opportunities across Birmingham. Our future growth will be delivered through public private partnerships driven by a shared vision with £17 billion of investment projected in the next ten years.
Birmingham is a young city, focused on the issues that matter; sustainability, education, business opportunity, quality of life and growth. Our 20-year vision for sustainable development and economic growth, transforming connectivity and improving quality of life, is on a scale whose ambition is quite unique.
It is this story of success and opportunity that we will take to MIPIM 2008. As the leading event for the property and development sector, Birmingham will use MIPIM to showcase its achievements and detail its plans for the future.
We will profile our revitalised city centre, along with the five new eco-urban villages that will rejuvenate Birmingham’s suburbs. We will showcase major regeneration, development and investment opportunities delivered through partnership.

Leader of Birmingham City Council
