Richmond is home to a thriving community of over 13,000 businesses. Its strategic location and high-quality environment make it an attractive destination for investment, with clear potential for business growth, innovation, and economic development.
World famous visitor attractions ranging from Hampton Court to the RFU stadium in Twickenham provide one of London’s strongest and most varied experience economies. Richmond is also home to a strong creative economy, an important cluster driven by assets such as Twickenham Studios and a long-standing musical heritage.
There are great affordable workspaces on offer at Patch in Twickenham and at our main Library Annex in Richmond as well as a wide range of commercial co-working spaces around the borough.
