A brand-new quarter for the whole city
Grab a bite to eat. Catch up with mates over coffee. Listen to a public talk in the amphitheatre. Learn how we collect and use data. Bring the kids around for amazing science demonstrations. Pop in, ask questions and have a chat. Because as a resident of the city, this is your space to discover.



In the businesses all around, you can find people developing ideas to help make our lives easier, healthier, smarter and longer. And if you’re a teacher who would like to bring their class to visit the Helix or meet a specific business, let us know – we’d love to have you.
As the businesses continue to grow, there’ll be even more job opportunities for local people, helping to create a thriving community that pushes Newcastle to the forefront of the digital revolution.
The Helix also offers inspirational city centre living, with hundreds of innovative homes – some so smart you can run them from your phone. Using cutting-edge materials, they are incredibly efficient to run and offer interiors you can change as your life changes.
