Tech City: Britain’s Silicon Valley?

Copping Joyce attended Property Week’s East London Summit 2011 at Canary Wharf on 24 November. The conference held a panel discussion entitled Tech City: Britain’s Silicon Valley? Speakers included Eric Van Der Keliij, CEO of the Tech City Investment Organisation and Kam Star, founder of Digital Shoreditch and Chief Executive of Playgen. Discussions included what has attracted the large influx of tech companies to the Shoreditch and Old Street area over recent years. Factors include the cheap rents, proximity to the City, vibrant night life and presence of other “creative industries”. Interestingly the number of tech companies in the area has doubled in the last year and the area is now considered the digital capital of Europe. There is still scope for growth as we are some way behind similar areas in New York and of course silicone valley.

 

What can the property industry do to help continued growth in this area? Keep rents competitive – although there is bound to be upward pressure, the speakers warned that the occupiers are after all digital companies and can be located anywhere in the world. They also need a continued supply of smaller but self contained units to house the large number of start ups coming to the area. Plenty of opportunities for us all, but food for thought too!!
