Islington is an inner-London borough stretching from Angel and Upper Street down to King's Cross and up towards Highbury and Holloway, mixing Georgian squares and terraces with a dense concentration of offices, agencies and independent businesses. The Business Design Centre on Upper Street anchors a cluster of creative, media and professional firms, while City Road on the borough's southern edge sits close to the Old Street roundabout tech and startup scene.
Businesses choose Islington for its excellent transport links, with Angel, Highbury & Islington and King's Cross St Pancras stations giving fast Underground, Overground and mainline connections into the City, West End and beyond, combined with rents that are typically lower than the West End or the City while still being walkable to both.
The borough's economy is built on professional and creative services, media, technology and a thriving independent retail and hospitality scene along Upper Street, Chapel Market and Exmouth Market, drawing a well-connected, London-wide client base.
