TEC Partners: Tech Corridor ambassadors

Having proudly been named on the Future50 list in 2019, we were delighted to also be an ambassador for the Cambridge Norwich Tech Corridor.

The Tech Corridor is a public-private partnership which aims to bring together businesses, academics, and political leaders on a mission to grow the region’s economy.

With over 100km of opportunity across Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, and Suffolk for start-ups, growing businesses, and investors, the Tech Corridor is rapidly becoming known as Europe’s most exciting growth story.

The initiative focuses on supporting indigenous growth and increased productivity in the region by creating a cross-sector ecosystem to drive collaboration and build on strong regional supply chains, as well as retaining and attracting talent and long-term investment.

As technical recruiters, we are also delighted to be involved with one of the Tech corridor’s Special Interest Group: The Talent Taskforce, which focuses on supporting efforts to attract and retain talent throughout the region.

Speaking about becoming Tech Corridor Ambassadors, our Commercial Director Dan Benson says: “We were proud to be involved in the first Tech Corridor meet up and workshops which took place at Hethel Technology Park back in 2018."

“The Tech Corridor presents an exciting opportunity for innovation and collaborative thinking and we are in a unique position. Our three founders set out to disrupt the traditional recruitment market by offering bespoke and highly technical recruitment solutions to our clients."

The initiative provides a platform for key businesses across the region to engage and discuss the technological challenges and skills required to carry us into the next decade and beyond. We are building specialist teams who focus on Big Data, AI, Machine Learning, Automation and the cross over between Science, Engineering and the more traditional Information Technology space, and it is this expertise that we want to bring into the Tech Corridor, which is why we are excited to be involved within the Talent Taskforce Special Interest Group.

“TEC Partners are passionate ambassadors and we were previously named as one of the region’s ‘ones to watch’ as part of the Future50 2019, and we look forward to sharing our knowledge and experience with the group.”
