UK Tech Week 2025: Showcasing Innovation in the East of England

The UK’s vibrant tech sector is gearing up for another groundbreaking UK Tech Week, taking place from the 17th to 21st March 2025. This nationwide celebration will bring together leading innovators, entrepreneurs, and digital pioneers to shine a spotlight on the cutting-edge technology shaping the future of the UK economy.

A Truly National Celebration

Building on the success of its inaugural event in 2024, UK Tech Week has quickly become a cornerstone of the country’s tech calendar. The initiative unites regional tech ecosystems, amplifying their contributions and ensuring that innovation isn’t just confined to major cities.
