To coincide with London Tech Week, this event will showcase Liverpool City Region (LCR) and the support it provides for the companies that are based here.
The region’s innovative and collaborative nature is conducive to a thriving ecosystem of start-ups and well established companies, and the range of both financial and professional support available to foster their continued growth and development plays a vital part in this.

Access to funding
Business support
Inward Investment
Ecosystem building
Role of education/research
