The entrepreneurial culture is an essential part of The Bridge and there are various ways that the development can help people who are starting up a new company.

The Nucleus business and innovation centre has been designed specifically to encourage start-up and early stage companies offering not only accommodation but also business advice and networking opportunities as well as links to both universities and funding organisations.

Recognising that some people choose to start their businesses from home, Taylor Wimpey is building a number of live/work units close to the Nucleus where occupiers will be able to use the centre's virtual service. Providing the same services and contacts available to Nucleus tenants, the virtual service is open to every resident at The Bridge – where broadband is fitted in every home as a standard feature – as well as to business people in the wider local area.
