UK Cities & Partners (UKCAP) is a powerful collective of the UK’s most forward-looking cities, regions, institutions, and private sector organisations, united by a single purpose: to showcase the scale and strength of investment opportunities across the United Kingdom.
Established by White Label in 2023, and supported by HM Government and the British Property Federation, UKCAP brings together partners from across the country – including London, Manchester, Newcastle, Liverpool, Oxford, Cambridge, the South, and Hertfordshire – alongside leading organisations such as Bidwells, Clifford Chance, Gascoyne Estates, Virtual Viewing, AECOM, Drees & Sommer, Lockton, Moore Kingston Smith, Shoosmiths, Stride Treglown, and The University of the Built Environment.
This collaborative platform connects public and private sector leaders to promote investment across housing, infrastructure, industrials, innovation zones, science and technology, and culture-led regeneration. By presenting a unified national story, UKCAP provides investors with a clear, credible, and coordinated view of the UK’s most compelling opportunities.
UKCAP continues to deliver a year-round programme of activity designed to bring cities, regions, and investors together – building meaningful connections that unlock new opportunities and long-term investment partnerships.
At major global investment forums such as EXPO REAL, UKREiiF, and MIPIM, UKCAP champions a shared national message: the UK is open, investable, and ready for partnership.
At EXPO REAL 2025, UKCAP strengthened its presence at the UK Investment Pavilion, presenting the scale, ambition, and diversity of the UK’s capital investment offer to Europe’s largest investor audience.
City leaders, developers, and advisers from across the country showcased flagship regeneration and innovation-led projects – from Forth Yards in Newcastle and Camden Film Quarter in London, to major opportunities across Liverpool, Southampton, Hertfordshire and beyond.
Attendees described the UKCAP programme as “an invaluable platform for making new international investment connections” and “a genuine example of partnership between the public and private sectors.”
More than 30 opportunity sites brought together in a single, coordinated pitch for UK investment – showcasing more than £100 billion in investable opportunities
More than 32 partners collaborating across cities, regions and organisations
More than 500 stand delegates across the two days, including 150+ attendees at the UK/EU Drinks Reception
More than 120 participants involved across the annual UKCAP programme
More than 65 representatives from partner networks attending EXPO REAL as part of the UKCAP delegation
Strong international engagement, leading to several active investment discussions and new commercial relationships for regional development projects
While UKCAP’s core focus is driving collaboration and investment, its communications programme continues to amplify this impact.
These results support the programme’s broader mission – increasing visibility for UK investment opportunities and reinforcing the UK’s position as a world-class destination for sustainable, inclusive growth.
UKCAP’s mission is to deepen relationships between investors, cities and government, and continue presenting the UK as a world-class destination for sustainable, innovation-driven investment.
The UKCAP Investment Prospectus remains open year-round – showcasing over £100 billion of investable opportunities across the UK’s leading city regions. Find out more at ukcitiesinvestment.co.uk
