Financing and supporting digital adoption

The cyber and digital sectors are changing at rapid pace, but the Midlands is proving itself equal to the challenge. Growing clusters across the region are driving innovative responses to modern opportunities and difficulties, with the cyber and data science sector alone representing £10.5bn in GVA and 128,700 jobs. With Creative Quarters established across six cities, a ‘Cyber Valley’ community that is home to the highest concentration of cyber businesses in the UK outside of London, and Warwickshire’s ‘Silicon Spa’ cluster responsible for 25% of the UK’s video game development output, the Midlands has been establishing itself as the place to be.
