A NEW £4m reception and networking area will be officially opened at Liverpool Innovation Park (LIP) this week.
The scheme provides a business gateway to the prominent Edge Lane site and a 5,000 sq ft WiFi-enabled networking facility.
LIP operator Space North West contributed £2.5m to the project, with the European Regional Development Fund chipping in with £1.42m.
The facility, which includes two training/meeting rooms, exhibition space, two semi-private meeting pods and a café/bistro, overlooks landscaped gardens.
As part of the refurbishment works, two ground- floor office suites, comprised of 5,500 sq ft and 9,500 sq ft, have been created next to the reception, and are now available for rent.
The suites have been named in honour of serial inventor Trevor Baylis.
LIP, which includes Wavertree Technology Park, is operated by Space North West, a joint venture between Ashtenne Industrial Fund and the NWDA.
