Building Brum: Midlands Update

Building Brum: Midlands Update

Hosted by EH Smith and Solus Ceramics at the Digbeth Design Centre

The West Midlands is undergoing an economic revolution, with multi-million-pound investments reshaping its industrial, residential, and commercial landscapes. From Smithgate in Wolverhampton to Upper Trinity Street in Digbeth, the region is experiencing unprecedented growth and significant investment. Birmingham’s ever-increasing demand for office space reflects its status as a thriving business hub, while Stephen Knight’s vision is transforming Digbeth into a major hub for film and creative industries.

This December, we are joined by Sophy Jacob, Project Director for the BBC and Lucy Lund Senior Project Manager J4 Projects, who will share insight into the vision behind the scheme, its design and delivery journey, and how it will support the BBC’s long-term commitment to the region

Join us this December as we shine a spotlight on one of Birmingham’s most talked-about regeneration projects, the BBC’s new home at the Tea Factory in Digbeth.

This landmark development marks a major milestone in the city’s transformation, blending heritage with innovation to create the BBC’s first net-zero carbon building. As part of the wider Typhoo Wharf masterplan, the project is set to play a key role in shaping Digbeth’s creative and cultural future
