That was the intention maybe a year ago. Don’t think anything has changed. Gulfstream held talks with LLAL but LLAL/ Council would not offer Gulfstream a plot of land for a new facility as it would have impacted the Councils expansion plans. Gulfstream threatened to leave and take its highly paid workforce with them and that is what has now happened.

Looking at Luton’s business jet traffic in general, it is also on the decline despite the millions Signature spent on its FBO again due to the LLAL policies to expand passenger numbers basically banning business jets for parts of the day due to the airport having no spare slots before Covid hit the airport or due to noise restrictions.
