It was a pleasure to attend the Millbrook Technology Park in my constituency last week for the launch event of the new business park.

This fantastic asset for Mid-Bedfordshire is a globally renowned centre for design, engineering, testing and technology development.

The new technology park will provide a home to a cluster of companies renowned for their expertise at the leading edge of automotive technology.

Expansion and development of the site’s facilities is a great boost to our local area and will provide more than 1,000 highly skilled jobs, worth a forecast £118 million to the economy.
