Invest in Nottingham launch a guide to Nottingham’s thriving tech scene

Invest in Nottingham have just released the latest guide to Nottingham’s thriving tech sector. If you’re looking to expand your tech scale up, Nottingham is the place to do so.

The guide has been developed to show tech businesses across the world that Nottingham is a great place to relocate or open up an office. Invest in Nottingham is the designated inward investment agency for Nottingham and Nottinghamshire and helps businesses to create a home in the region.

Lorraine Baggs, Head of Investment at Invest in Nottingham said:

“Our latest guide to Nottingham’s tech scene encompasses just why this is the place to be to help your business thrive. Our ecosystem is one of the best in the UK for nurturing growing businesses. We’re a city with great connectivity in the heart of the UK, just over an hour from London. We have a young population with 60,000 students studying in the city each year with two world class universities, we have the talent to grow.

We have great strengths in FinTech – the home of Experian, Capital One and Ikano Bank – as well as MedTech, HRTech and even gaming.”

Scale Space are an example of a company choosing to locate in Nottingham and thrive, having just announced a partnership with the University of Nottingham.

Mark Sanders, CEO of Scale Space said:

“The tech guide does a great job of reminding me of the ingredients available in Nottingham to help build great businesses and also highlights the strong tech and data cluster, which Scale Space is delighted to be associated with. Our site in Wollaton Street already hosts a growing community of tech enabled scaleups and we are looking forward to welcoming more, and continuing to foster collaboration and innovation in the city.”

Lorraine added; “If you want to find out more about relocating your business to Nottingham, or have a client who may be in the position of expanding, please get in touch with our team of Business Expansion Specialists via enquiries@investinnottingham.co.uk

Invest in Nottingham will be using the new Nottingham Tech Guide for a digital campaign to attract new Tech business and talent to the city. The team will also be attending to physical events, including Tech Week in September, to distribute the brochure to businesses whose next home might be in Nottingham.
