Regeneration and developmentSeveral organisations have been created in the past 20 years with the purpose of regenerating Sheffield's economy. The Sheffield Development Corporation was established in 1988 in order to regenerate Lower Don Valley area of Sheffield, which had been the location of much of the city's traditional industry. In its 11 year existence it replaced much of the derelict land with new business ventures, the most famous project being the creation of Meadowhall shopping centre. More recently a new city economic development company, Creative Sheffield, has been established and, in April 2007, Sheffield First for Investment, Sheffield One and the Cultural Industries Quarter Agency were all integrated into the one organisation. Sheffield is also home to UK Steel Enterprise, the regeneration and investment subsidiary of Corus Group plc.
