Gatwick launches UK’s first Airport Economic Zone
London Gatwick Airport has officially launched the UK’s first Airport Economic Zone (AEZ), a new partnership aiming to boost regional growth and attract more investment. The AEZ brings together local authorities and businesses across areas like West Sussex, Surrey, and Kent, which together represent a major part of the UK economy.
The project was developed over six months through joint work between public and private sectors. It focuses on key industries such as aerospace, clean energy, life sciences, and advanced manufacturing. A new brand has also been created to promote the region more effectively to international investors.
