Twinned with one of the world’s greatest universities it is clear to see why this city is leading the way in the recovery of the UK economy and is tipped to be one of the biggest contenders to London’s tech reign. Crowdsurfer- an alternative finance search engine, Eight19 - producer of flexible solar panels, RaspberryPi - a credit card sized computer for education, Darktrace - a cyber-security threat detection technology provider. Recently, however, due partly to the development of the Bristol and Bath Science Park and to the SETsquared partnership between the two cities universities, as well as high speed data connection availability, the region has seen a number of fast growth start-ups emerge. Sheffield is home to dot forge accelerator whose alumni are making a big splash in the region and further afield, as well as hosting a number of events aimed at the start-up market in general.
