BOP also works in partnership with Futurecity on major regeneration projects.

Futurecity is the leading placemaking agency in the UK, using culture and creativity to bring people and urban space together. Futurecity works with the property sector, award winning artists, architects, and the best landscape architects and engineers.

BOP provides the research base which underpins the joint placemaking offer. We bring our expertise in the cultural sector – robust policy analysis, creative economy research, best practice projects, consumer trend data and other statistical evidence – to help inform proposals for sites.

BOP worked closely with us to model our income potential and to decide the best mix of facilities and services for our proposed new wing. We are confident that we now have the right scheme. BOP’s findings will help us to secure support and funding.
