Tech Nation is an interactive data project that shows the growth of digital businesses within specific areas/regions – ‘clusters’ – across the UK. The project has been developed and curated by Tech City UK, the government-backed organisation focused on the UK’s digital economy, in partnership with DueDil.
Tech Nation’s analysis shows that the UK’s tech clusters are driving economic growth nationally and that the growth of digital businesses reaches far beyond the capital.
The Prime Minister said:
“Backing the industries of the future is a key part of our long-term economic plan to support business, create more jobs and build a more resilient economy. The digital economy has become an integral part of our country and the rapid growth of many digital businesses has confirmed Britain’s position as a global hub of technology excellence. We are committed to supporting the growth of our digital industry nationwide and Tech Nation shows the great innovation and thriving entrepreneurial spirit that is driving the sector forward across the country.”
