IASP UKSPA
International Links
msp has strong international connections which it can use for its tenants’ benefit.  msp is a full member of The International Association of Science Parks (IASP), which is a global forum for sharing best practice and also a useful source of international partners who can be trusted to support msp tenants wishing to explore new markets.

Through its association with MIDAS (Manchester’s inward investment agency), msp is a major player in a programme of reciprocal arrangements which Manchester has with certain overseas cities and regions, whereby Manchester companies can be given particular assistance in exploring new markets in those areas.

Furthermore, with UK Trade & Investment (UKTI), msp can point tenants to people and organisations who are able to assist them in seeking and developing markets overseas.

Every year msp expands its global operations, welcoming visitors from all around the world, while Jane Davies, our CEO, is regularly invited to speak at prestigious seminars worldwide.

In today’s increasingly global marketplace, msp’s links with science and technology clusters across the world is of increasing importance.

msp’s worldwide links are working to encourage inward investment into the city region as well as providing a support network for tenant companies wishing to branch out internationally or collaborate with partners in new markets.
