History

In 2017, the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham (in partnership with Imperial College London) published its Industrial Strategy ‘Economic Growth for Everyone’. Hammersmith & Fulham has long been a great place to work and play, being home to international and innovative businesses, and blessed with river views, exceptional transport links, and a thriving arts scene. 

This strategy outlined a vision for transforming the borough into a global beacon of innovation and growth, not just for businesses located here but for the local community too. From this vision was created the Partnership for Growth and Innovation – now known as Upstream Nexus – as a conduit between businesses and other stakeholders, to help make this vision into a reality.
