WITHIN A SPECIAL CITY, CALTONGATE IS A SPECIAL LOCATION

Edinburgh city centre pulses with life. The headquarters of major international businesses sit yards from some of the country's most celebrated retailers. There are legal and financial services of the highest calibre and pedigree, and gardens and galleries providing a haven of peace.

Central Edinburgh is compact and lively. The Parliament building in the east is around a mile and a half from the Exchange District in the west. In between, commerce and leisure sit side by side creating a superb and efficient business environment and a wonderful place in which to work. Waverley Valley is the most recent focus of development, with Edinburgh City Council's impressive new headquarters adding prestige to the location. Famous retailers and stylish bars and restaurants are just a short walk away.

And business in Edinburgh is underpinned by world-class educational institutions. Four universities and a range of colleges provide a constant flow of highly qualified young people ready to make a mark on the world. World-class academic research and development feeds into the private sector with mutual benefits.
