Strong partnerships attract investment
Published: 2010-02-23 12:51:08
A strong spirit of partnership is drawing companies to the borough, according to Croydon Council chief executive Jon Rouse.
Speaking exclusively to Croydon magazine, he said organisations in the borough benefit from a level of support and cooperation unavailable in central London.
"Croydon is just imbued with a really strong spirit of partnership, so that business, voluntary sector, council, college… we just work incredibly closely together and we support one another as a single family," he said.
"You don't get that in central London in the same way. We are large enough to have all the facilities and the public transport links that you would want in a business environment, but small enough that we all know each other, and there's a great mutual support network. We all pitch in to make Croydon a better place."
