Interesting stuff about
Dundee.
As in the rest of
Scotland manufacturing industries are being gradually
replaced by a mixed economy, although 13.5% of the workforce
still work in the manufacturing sector, higher than the
Scottish and UK average, and more than double that of
Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen. The main new growth sectors
have been software development and biotechnology along with
retail. The city has a small financial, banking and
insurance sector, employing 11% of the workforce.
In 2006, 29 companies employed 300 or more staff these
include limited and private companies NCR Corporation,
Michelin, Tesco, D. C. Thomson & Co, BT, SiTEL, Alliance
Trust, Norwich Union, Royal Bank of Scotland, Asda,
Strathtay Scottish, Tayside Contracts, Tokheim, Scottish
Citylink, W H Brown Construction, C J Lang & Son, Joinery
and Timber Creations, HBOS, Debenhams, Travel Dundee, WL
Gore and Associates, In Practice Systems, The Wood Group,
Simclar, Millipore Life Sciences, Alchemy (antibody
technology), Cypex(manufacturers of recombinant drug
metabolising enzymes, including cytochrome P450s, and in
vitro drug metabolism specialists). Major employers in the
public sector and non profit sector are NHS Tayside, the
University of Dundee, Tayside Police, Dundee College,
Tayside Fire Brigade, HM Revenue and Customs, University of
Abertay Dundee and Wellcome Trust.
The largest employers in Dundee are the city council and the
Health Service, which make up over 10% of the city's
workforce. The biomedical and biotechnology sectors,
including start-up biomedical companies arising from
university research, employ just under 1,000 people directly
and nearly 2,000 indirectly. Information technology and
software for computer games have been important industries
in the city for more than twenty years. Rockstar North,
developer of Lemmings and the Grand Theft Auto series was
founded in Dundee as DMA Design by David Jones; an
undergraduate of the University of Abertay Dundee. David
Jones is now the CEO of Realtime Worlds, which has recently
(2007) released Crackdown for the Xbox 360, and is
responsible for employing over 200 people of multi national
origin, primarily in Dundee. Other game developing companies
in Dundee include Denki, Ruffian Games, Dynamo Games, 4J
Studios, Cohort Studios amongst others.
Dundee is responsible for 10% of Britain’s digital
entertainment industry, with an annual turnover of £100
million. Outside of specialised fields of medicine, science
and technology, the proportion of Dundonians employed in the
manufacturing sector is higher than that found in the larger
Scottish cities; nearly 12% of workers. Manufacturing income
per head in Dundee was £19,700 in 1999, compared to £16,700
in Glasgow. The insolvency rate for businesses in Dundee is
lower than other Scottish cities, accounting for only 2.3%
of all liquidations in Scotland, compared to 22% and 61.4%
for Edinburgh and Glasgow respectively.
The surrounding area is home to three major UK military
bases, Condor (Royal Marines), Leuchars (RAF) which can
cause sudden noise from aircraft exercises, and Barry (army
and training).
The city is served by Ninewells Hospital—one of the largest
and most up to date in Europe, as well as three other public
hospitals: Kings Cross, Victoria, and Ashludie, and one
private: Fernbrae. A recent addition to Ninewells Hospital
is the Maggie's Centre building, which was designed by Frank
Gehry officially opened by Sir Bob Geldof in 2007. Dundee is
Scotland's first Fibrecity. |
