Manchester: where great minds meet

Manchester is an ambitious city and one that has paved the way with a wealth of innovations and ideas. From the city that split the atom and created the first programmable computer to introducing the first professional football league, Manchester is known as a city of firsts.

It has also undergone a series of transformations, from industrial heartland to the vibrant and exciting conurbation it is today, which is something that can be seen from the consistent development and investment into venues and the city’s transport infrastructure.
