Here East

Directions Website

Here East is London’s campus for entrepreneurs, creatives, and unconventional thinkers to dream big and create at scale.

Here East is a place of immense opportunity. 1.2 million sq ft on London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. A home for individuals and companies who push technology, share expertise and create the products of tomorrow. Big business collides with small business and creativity flourishes. Radicals, reformers, visionaries, industry heroes and like-minded locals – they are all part of our East London and its geography of innovation. Here East is being able to proudly stamp ‘made here’.

Supporting our local community has always been at the heart of what we do at Here East.

That's why we're proud to announce our new charity partnership with XLP 🎉

Our home borough of Hackney is full of talent, creativity and potential, and through this partnership, we're excited to help create more opportunities for the next generation to thrive 🚀

It was our greatest honour to welcome His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tariq, Sultan of Oman, to Here East today as part of his official UK State Visit.

This is the first state visit by a Sultan of Oman in 44 years, and we were delighted that Here East and Plexal were chosen for the final day of his trip. This followed His Majesty’s visit to Windsor Castle and 10 Downing Street.

His Majesty and his accompanying Royal delegation met with pioneering businesses based at Here East and toured a special industry showcase inside Plexal, highlighting UK companies leading the way in critical frontier sectors like AI, space, clean energy, and life sciences.

Thank you to His Majesty for visiting Here East. It was an honour to showcase our campus, its leading innovators, and our role in driving international collaboration and technological innovation.
