Milton Keynes named UK's 'most productive city'

    Business Name Generator has crowned Milton Keynes as the UK's number one city for productivity.

    In an article by TechRound, it has been revealed that Business Name Generator has crowned Milton Keynes as the UK's most productive city.

    The city gained its title through its quality of life, commuting times and economic output.

    Milton Keynes scored 197.29 out of 240 in quality of life with a GVA of £45.90 per hour.   

    Not far behind in the race are Edinburgh and Kingston upon Hull, TechRound reports.

    As Linus Näslund, Chief Operating Officer at Business Name Generator, puts it, “The results highlight how a city’s environment can play a pivotal role in driving productivity. It’s not just about economic factors; factors like commuting times and quality of life are equally important.”

    Last year, MK was ranked the most competitive city in the UK. The new city was top of the rankings in a similar report in 2019 but was not acknowledged as it was yet to be declared a city back then.

    This report, prepared by academics from the University of Cardiff and Nottingham Business School, measures the potential of UK localities, cities, and regions to generate economic growth and well-paid employment in the long run.

    According to the report, Milton Keynes is the most competitive city in the country, and the best place for businesses to thrive and entrepreneurs to fulfil their business dreams and potential.

    The same report also states that Milton Keynes is expected to have one of the highest long-term growth rates among UK cities outside London.
