Through dedicated programmes, we support the digital technology sector’s need for skills, infrastructure, and investment. We gather and share vital information which informs policymakers, and give digital entrepreneurs a national and local voice.
Our work accelerates the growth of digital businesses, in London and across the UK, at all stages of their development. You can see our work in action with Future Fifty, Upscale, Digital Business Academy, Tech Nation, and HQUK.
We also have a team working across seven cities in the North of England – Tech North – to drive the digital economy forward in the region. The team has already launched Northern Stars, Founders Network, Digital Powerhouse and Career Hacker.
