Edinburgh Innovation Hub welcomes first tenant

By Press Office

The newly opened Edinburgh Innovation Hub has welcomed its first tenant, Forge Minerals, a producer of high-performance magnesium carbonate offering a low-carbon alternative to today’s resource-intensive materials.

The Edinburgh Innovation Hub (EIH) is a joint venture between Queen Margaret University and East Lothian Council. It is set to be a nationally significant centre for innovation-driven business growth, creating new high-value employment, and is the anchor project of the planned Edinburgh Innovation Park.

EIH is part of the Edinburgh and South East Scotland City Region Deal and is supported by £28.6 million from the UK Government, £1.4 million from the Scottish Government and £10 million from East Lothian Council.

Forge Minerals has moved in just two weeks after EIH received practical completion.
