  • London’s new tech hotspot might be south of the river

    Tech

    London's tech businesses have long clustered around Old Street and Stratford. But could the new design district in Greenwich steal the crown?

    London's tech businesses have long clustered around Old Street and latterly Stratford. But could the new design district in Greenwich be set to steal the crown? That's what London's so-called design district reckons will happen after it has lured in a cohort of creative tech businesses, including music producer Brain Audio and immersive events space Engage Works. Both these companies relocated from Hackney and Aldgate, respectively, in search of a purpose-built space and improved facilities. They turned to the capital's so-called design district, which is the first dedicated hub for creative industries in London. Emma Mansell, head of the design district said: "We’re pleased to see this creative tech cluster form at Design District. The term ‘creative industries’ has undoubtedly expanded over the years to include evolving disciplines and sectors and Design District is right at the frontier of this. "Businesses continue to relocate to Design District in search of a wider, symbiotic creative community that nurtures and facilitates growth alongside cutting-edge facilities and purpose-built space," she added. Launched in 2021, it is a 150,000 square-foot space that says it supports 1,800 people in the sector. Engage Works, occupies two floors at the design district, with the move there enabling the build of their Flux Innovation Lounge – a hybrid events space decked out with high-spec technology. Steve Blyth, chief executive at Engage Works said: "Connecting with other similar-minded enterprises, as well as an understanding of the unique technology requirements, were vital elements to our decision to relocate as we scale and grow our operation.”
