Connect with the most collaborative organisations in ICT

The Heart of England has a well-established ICT cluster with numerous organisations exploiting the opportunity to collaborate with local and international organisations. Particularly strongly represented are the fields of photonics and systems integration, where companies like Before U Dig, AT&T and Webropol have established and are growing in the West Midlands. Meanwhile there’s a well-developed educational base in the region producing 4,850 skilled ICT graduates every year.

As you’d expect, local and national government bodies are keen to encourage new ICT investment into the region.

Beforeudig

Collaboration with like-minded local companies – and a big helping hand from Advantage West Midlands - has enabled this ICT company from Down Under to relocate successfully to the Heart of England. Before U Dig provides an innovative service to contracting firms, local authorities and utilities, providing detailed underground asset plans. With clients throughout the UK and in mainland Europe, a central location at Warwick Technology Park is ideal, and Birmingham International Airport provides connections for foreign travel. AWM’s Bridge to Growth programme provided introductions to local legal and accountancy firms and a network of like-minded small businesses to help the company connect with a new market. It even provided welcome help with house-hunting and relocating employees’ families.
