The Tech City Investment Organisation (TCIO) is fortunate to have the highest-calibre Champions and Ambassadors, helping us create and communicate the strategy vision for Tech City.

Champions
A Tech City Champion is being appointed to each of the four main areas of focus – companies, entrepreneurs, finance and talent. The champions have been invited due to their specific in-area expertise, and will lead our thinking and vision in ensuring the success of relevant initiatives.

Kevin Eyres, former MD of LinkedIn UK & Ireland, has been appointed Tech City Talent Champion and has launched the Tech City Mentorship programme.

Anil Hansjee is Tech City’s Companies Champion. Formerly a Venture Capitalist with IDG Ventures and latterly, Head of M&A for Google EMEA, Anil is bringing start-ups, corporates and investors closer together.

Ambassadors
Tech City Ambassadors are leading international figures in their field with a strong connection to Tech City and will represent the area in their cities and clusters around the world.
