Gateway to London launches Annual Business Survey

Gateway to London's annual London Thames Gateway Business Survey is giving local businesses a chance to share their views about doing business in the region.

And, to thank businesses for taking part, on completing the survey you will be entered into a free prize draw to win a £250 Amazon voucher (first prize), a £100 Amazon voucher (second prize) or a £50 Amazon voucher (third prize).

John Williams, Chief Executive of Gateway to London: "The Annual Business Survey is an important piece of research for our region. We will share the results of the survey with our partners to lobby for positive changes for business such as transport improvements and represent businesses views to decision makers, so please log on and tell us what you think".

Last year's survey uncovered some interesting findings, including the fact that nearly eight out of 10 companies in London Thames Gateway were happy with their location. 79 per cent of companies in the region, which includes the London boroughs of Barking & Dagenham, Bexley, City of London, Greenwich, Hackney, Havering, Lewisham, Newham, Redbridge and Tower Hamlets, said they were either satisfied or very satisfied with their London Thames Gateway location, a notable increase on the 2007 survey.

Survey specialists ComRes will collect and analyse results from local businesses across the region on behalf of Gateway to London, the Inward Investment Agency for London Thames Gateway, Europe's largest growth area.

The results of the survey will be published on the Gateway to London website.
