A leading healthcare industry expert has chosen the Calthorpe Estate in Edgbaston to expand its West Midlands operation – helping to further its reputation as the city’s very own ‘Harley Street’.

Medilink West Midlands, which provides industry knowledge and commercial opportunities to the healthcare sector, will now house 17 staff at its new premises at four Greenfield Crescent.

Tony Davis, CEO of Medilink WM said: “The nature of our business is information and opportunities so we needed space more conducive to idea development. Calthorpe Estates approached us with the opportunity to be directly involved in the design of our new office, meeting our expansion needs perfectly.

“As a result, we are now in a building able to cope with a number of closed and open-door meetings at a time, enabling us to effectively develop our commercial ideas and projects.”

The Edgbaston Estate has proved popular with the medical sector, attracting dentistry, weight management and cosmetic businesses.

Natasha Walkden, sales and marketing co-ordinator for Calthorpe Estates, said: “Greenfield Crescent is the ideal base for MedilinkWM, benefiting from being in close proximity to other players in the region’s medical research industry and the major hospital network in Birmingham.

“We are very pleased to be able to welcome MedilinkWM to Edgbaston and the strong medical community that already exists on the Estate.”

The company will occupy 3,035 sq ft at Greenfield Crescent, with the new premises undergoing an extensive refurbishment programme.

Mr Davis concluded: “Calthorpe Estates are a realistic yet forward-thinking property developer offering a central location and good links with local organisations.

“We are looking forward to a prosperous future at our new location.”
