Our Location

The Canterbury Enterprise Hub is located on the University of Kent campus in Canterbury. We are in the two storey building to the left of the Sports Centre (aluminium upper storey with a round roof) and to the right of the Biosciences Department entrance (walk past the entrance and go along the wall until to reach our entrance - there is a large sign above the front door). Here's a printable campus map in PDF format. Click here for our address and phone number.
