A programme launched in Sunderland to unearth the city’s next major tech employer is calling upon residents to get involved.
Tech Startup Sunderland is being driven by industry experts providing support to new digital and tech businesses in the city. Set up last year, the programme has brought together a team of tech experts with decades of industry experience to increase the number of new tech businesses setting up in the city.
The team has worked with dozens of budding entrepreneurs to develop a wide range of early-stage business ideas, from cyber security consultancies to software platforms and the development of mobile apps. Now the programme leaders are calling on residents to get involved and find out how the support could help them bring their big ideas to life.
