WHY GREATER BRIGHTON
The Greater Brighton City Region covers 7 local authority areas, from Bognor in the west to Seaford in the east, and up to Crawley in the north of Sussex.
We are home to 1 million residents, 40,000 businesses, the UK’s second largest airport, two leading universities and an economy worth £21 billion a year.
The Greater Brighton Economic Board is the overarching, legally-constituted body behind the growth of the City Region and was formed in 2014 with the aim of protecting and growing the region’s economy through creative, innovative initiatives which coordinate economic development activities and investment.
