Aston University has opened a study hub in London to develop future business and technology leaders. 

The hub is based at 200A Aldersgate and is set to welcome its first group of students in July. 

Degree programmes will focus on areas including digital innovation, data science and artificial intelligence (AI), cyber security management, global business and management, and business analytics.

Aston University will work with Cambridge Education Group (CEG) on the project. 

The location in central London puts the hub close to major firms such as Adidas, Adobe, Amazon, Deloitte Digital, Monzo, ITV and TikTok.
