YEP Prospectus_Southampton_reduced.indd 5 22/01/2020 21:44:37 Our YEP Southampton Chapter was commenced in July 2018 and we continue to grow the committee through YEP’s existing membership, sponsors and partners.
Southampton is a major port city on the south coast, located 75 miles south-west of London and 19 miles North-west of Portsmouth. The city, which is a unitary authority has an estimated population of 253,651, with the wider metropolitan area including Portsmouth supporting over 1.5million inhabitants, the 6th largest Urbana area in the U.K. Just over a quarter of the jobs available in the city are in the health and education sector.
A further 19 per cent are property and other business and the third-largest sector is wholesale and retail, which accounts for 16.2 percent. Numerous large scale developments are planned within the city.
We look forward to establishing a chapter of YEP at the centre of England’s south coast economy. If you are interested in knowing more about this Chapter or opportunities of being involved as a partner, sponsor or committee member please email [email protected].
