"The National Brownfield Institute (NBI) is a world-class centre that will be integral to the way land remediation and regeneration is carried out across the Black Country, West Midlands, the UK and beyond. The NBI will play a pivotal part in unlocking industrial land to help tackle the housing shortage in towns and cities. The institute is one of the projects supported by the Government’s Getting Building fund for the West Midlands, part of the Levelling Up programme, in partnership with City of Wolverhampton Council, the Black Country LEP and West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA).
The commitment from the NBI is to offer bespoke, fully funded support to local, regional, and national businesses for brownfield remediation, regeneration, and development during the project."
