Science and Business Parks are special areas where companies, universities, and research organisations come together to work on new ideas and technologies. Located often on the outskirts of cities, these parks are designed to encourage innovation and collaboration by providing offices, laboratories, and meeting spaces close to each other. They help create jobs and can boost the economy by attracting high-tech companies and talented people to the area. They are easy to access, with green space and parking. For GCSE Geography students, understanding these parks can demonstrate how communities plan and develop space to support modern industries and scientific research in the post-industrial economy.
