UK Software & IT services opportunities

The UK is the most successful location in Europe for attracting software companies.

Over a million people are employed in computer-related fields in the UK, with more than half in the software and computer services industry.

It is home to leading global players and to over 100,000 specialist software houses.

In fact, there are more software start-ups in the UK than anywhere else in Europe.

The software market is bolstered by public-sector engagement and the UK Government is investing heavily in pursuit of its transformational agenda.

Find out how the UK’s state-of-the-art ICT infrastructure could support your company’s growth.

Or browse case studies of software and IT companies that have already set up in the UK to find out about their experiences.
