Local planners have given their consent for the creation of a third office building at Liverpool Innovation Centre.

The project will see the creation of a new 42,000 sq ft premises featuring offices, a new laboratory and meeting rooms.

Innovation Centre 3 is expected to be open by autumn next year and will be built on a 0.55-hectare site over the existing car park of Innovation Centre 1.

Chris Musson, chief executive officer of Liverpool Science Park, said: "The third building is the next piece in the evolving jigsaw of Liverpool Science Park's unique offering. Receiving detailed planning permission is a key step along the way to realising this third building."

Elsewhere in the city, renewable energy firm Enfinity has opened a new office at the Plaza.

The excellent transport links and "exceptional" value for money were the main reasons behind the choice, Patrick Decuyper, co-founder and chief executive officer of Enfinity, noted.
