Where creative meets tech.
Creative, Digital & Tech
Liverpool is famous for its music, fashion and culture; its actors, comedians, producers and writers; its songs, films and sports. But the city region is also home to the fastest supercomputers; the top ranked university computer science department and world-class facilities for the research and development of immersive technologies; artificial intelligence and industrial digitisation.
We’re a place full of BAFTA winning productions and Oscar-winning talent. Our firms deliver creative solutions for Disney, Sony, BBC, Virgin Media, Vodafone, Nintendo, Microsoft, Google and Amazon. This place has a rhythm and an energy all of its own – and it’s always moved to its own beat: attracting world class talent, encouraging new startups, and developing the next generation of creators, makers, gamers and ground-breakers.
