Notes de l'éditeur

  1. London attracts the best talent from all over Europe and the world, as well as having more world-class universities than any other city and being a beacon for world-class IT related research   Leading global tech companies have now established development centres in the city to produce new products – including Google (700 engineers), Facebook and Yammer (both second largest engineering operations outside Silicon Valley) Skype and Amazon. The organisations are attracted not only by London’s large pool of talented engineers and developers, but also the city’s expertise in the creative, design and artistic fields.   London's/SE England's technology and information sector is growing faster than in California, with 382,000 people working in computing, gaming, telecoms, film and media, according to a recent report by South Mountain Economics. Over the next decade. London’s digital tech sector is expected to grow at 5.1 per cent per year, creating an additional £12 billion of economic activity and 46,000 new jobs in the capital by 2024. Note: data from July’14 Source: LinkedIn

Companies like moo.com sublet desks when they had more space than they needed, an example was TweetDeck which was sold to Twitter.

  4. London is home to some of the world’s most innovative and creative businesses in convergence sectors such as FinTech, AdTech and RetailTech and others like FashionTech, CyberTech, EdTech and MedTech   London attracts more international companies from the ICT, Electronics, Financial Services, and Creative Industries than any other European city resulting in unparalleled opportunities for convergence and access to expertise.   The fact that over 50% of companies in the Sunday Times 2014 Tech Track 100 list are located in London is testament to the innovative culture & opportunity created in the capital, with companies operating in a number of the new emerging tech clusters such as AdTech, FinTech and MedTech. Two great examples in the AdTech space are Unruly, a video advertising platform which helps video ads “go viral”, has tracked 430bn video views, secured £15m in investment and in 2013 sales hit £19.3m. Skimlinks is a marketing technology developer which allows journalists, publishers and bloggers to earn revenue from the products they write about and draws 50% of its revenues (gross in 2013 of £13.3m) from America.
