Welcome to the Eastern City Business Improvement District.

The Eastern City BID is a business-led partnership working to support one of the world’s most iconic commercial districts – the Square Mile’s tall building cluster. Through a variety of projects and programmes we enhance the everyday experience for our community of workers and visitors.

On behalf of its levy-paying members, the Eastern City BID delivers added value beyond statutory services by investing circa £4m annually in its public spaces, safety & security, social responsibility, environmental sustainability, events, culture and destination promotion. Elected every 5 years to fulfil this function, the BID is governed by the corporations that operate here and the priorities set according to their needs.

The Eastern City is more than a place of work: it’s where historic streets and modern towers sit side by side, and where local activity drives change on a global scale.

By building a stronger sense of community and connectivity, combined with an exceptional experience of ‘place’, the BID’s mission is to attract talent, support long-term economic vitality and reinforce the area’s global reputation.
