We are pleased to announce that we have selected the twelve successful organisations that will be joining us on our All Access Pass: Future of Inclusive Tourism programme in partnership with Destination North East England. Starting in January, this 10-week challenge will focus on how 5G and immersive technologies can benefit three key areas within the tourism and heritage sector: accessibility, access to sites in poor weather conditions and engaging tourists that don’t have access to personal technology. Meet the successful organisations that will be joining us in our latest blog.👇 https://lnkd.in/eiYCUpXC Digital Catapult floe Sunderland Software City The North East Combined Authority

Proud to be part of this Group. 2025 is going to be a great year of innovation and growth.
As we prepare for 2025, the UK Tech Cluster Group (UKTCG) is doubling down on our commitment to supporting regional tech ecosystems across the UK. Our priority? Ensuring that regional clusters have the resources, support, and influence to drive growth. We’re advocating for: - A Regional Ecosystem Fund to back local initiatives that fuel innovation. - Enhanced R&D Tax Credits targeted at regions outside London and the South East to level the playing field. - Simplified access to government funding for SMEs and startups to enable faster scaling and adoption of technology. Regional tech ecosystems are the key to unlocking the UK’s full economic potential. Let’s make 2025 the year we prioritise inclusive growth and innovation. #RegionalGrowth #TechPolicy #Innovation
