LIVERPOOL’S first enterprise centre for women is expected to get the go-ahead when city planners meet to consider the proposal tomorrow.
The £5.3m Women’s International Centre for Economic Development (WICED) aims to help position Liverpool as a business-friendly city for women by encouraging the start-up of women-owned businesses.
The city centre development by the Liverpool women’s enterprise organisation Train 2000 will be in the Baltic Triangle area, on the corner of St James Street and Norfolk Street.
It is being jointly funded by WICED, the Northwest Development Agency, European Regional Development Fund, Future Builders and Liverpool City Council.
City planners are recommending the scheme is approved.
