MIDAS, Manchester’s investment and development agency, offers an extensive, free and confidential package of advice and assistance to companies looking to relocate to, or expand within, the Greater Manchester area.

MIDAS works with potential investors to secure new investment, reinvestment and employment for the city region. We also provide aftercare to recent investors and work closely with those foreign owned companies already located in the City Region, creating new jobs and increasing productivity. The expertise that MIDAS has developed has directly contributed to Manchester being recognised as a Top Ten Major European City (Financial Times fDi) and the Best UK City to Locate a New Headquarters or Back Office Function (Cushman and Wakefield).

MIDAS promotes investment in Manchester City Region on behalf of the ten local authorities of Greater Manchester - Bolton, Bury, Manchester, Oldham, Rochdale, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford and Wigan – and is supported by the Northwest Regional Development Agency.
