Project Details

Derby City Council commissioned Scape and Perfect Circle to prepare a feasibility investigating the scope and programme for delivering a renewed Assembly Rooms.

IPW were engaged in the project to provide specialist venue advice as part of the consultant team.

IPW analysed where the refurbished venue would be positioned in the market place, developed design interventions that could be considered to bring in additional revenue and interest in the scheme, produce a high level business plan, and undertake soft market testing with potential operating partners

IPW also worked in partnership with Forever Consulting to complete an Economic Impact Assessment for the proposed scheme.

This scheme was not progressed, with the Council progressing with a brand new performance venue in the Becketwell regeneration area, also working with IPW
