Introduction

• Clyde Gateway is a major regeneration project
  covering the inner east end of the City and
  crossing the River Clyde to include parts of
  South Lanarkshire. It extends to approximately
  830 hectares (2050 acres).
• There were 5 main partners involved in the
  strategic development of the project, namely
• Glasgow City Council
• Scottish Enterprise National
• Scottish Enterprise Glasgow
• Scottish Enterprise Lanarkshire
• South Lanarkshire Council
• However, since the preparation of the business
  plan, Communities Scotland has been invited to
  play a full part of the emerging project strategy
  and is regarded as a full partner. Other
  organizations may also be invited to participate
  at partner level once the strategy is more
  defined.
