Combined expertise for the South London Boroughs

BIG South London was created by the South London Partnership, a collaboration of five London Boroughs; Croydon, Kingston Upon Thames, Merton, Richmond Upon Thames and Sutton out of a recognition that businesses in the region needed a post-pandemic boost to reignite growth.

There are a vast amount of resources, expertise, and facilities available at the universities and further education colleges in our region, and we’re on a mission to help businesses tap into these as a way of boosting business capacity, talent, and competitiveness. Find out more about our partners
