On-line revolution for Holbeck Urban Village

>>> Posted 10/04/2006

This week sees the launch of the new website for Holbeck Urban Village (www.holbeckurbanvillage.co.uk), providing an online resource for an area close to Leeds city centre which aims to become the location for creative and digital media businesses in the region

The website has been completely re-developed in just three short months by New Media Collective, whose client list includes major international brands such as Umbro, Hugo Boss and GHD.

Based at the Round Foundry Media Centre in Holbeck, the Leeds company has a track record of delivering online learning projects for the BBC and viral marketing campaigns for regional development agency Yorkshire Forward.

The new site combines a new look and feel with rich content, exploring the history of the area and plans for its regeneration as a vibrant new business and residential community.

Holbeck Urban Village was the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution in Leeds and over  the next ten years is expected to create up to 5,000 new jobs and attract investment of up to £800 million.
