Hatfield is set to get a new 2,800 square metre business centre – which could create over 150 jobs locally.

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council were awarded a Hertfordshire local enterprise partnership (LEP) grant of £750,000 to help transform the first floor of Beaconsfield Court into HatTech.

The office development is aimed at offering flexible workspace for start-up companies, solo entrepreneurs, freelancers, small business owners and their teams.

It will have co-working spaces, a wellbeing garden, private offices and meeting rooms, and a place to network and build new connections.

Wewlyn Garden City already has a similar business centre called Weltech.

HatTech is expected to open in early 2020.
