About us
Tech West Mids (TechWM) – formerly Birmingham Tech – is a not-for-profit community initiative (CIC) that aims to raise the profile of the West Midlands tech sector and help local businesses go global. Through a number of carefully crafted scale-up initiatives, cross-network collaboration, and original content, Tech West Midlands helps tech and digital businesses successfully scale by providing them with valuable knowledge, insight, and support. Since its inception in 2019, the organisation has helped businesses raise over £100 million and inspired thousands of people to get into the tech sector. It has also become known for its most popular showcase event, Birmingham Tech Week – the UK’s largest regional tech event. TechWM works with over 50 national and regional partners across the ecosystem, including the Department for Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT); techUK; West Midlands Combined Authority; and the UK Tech Cluster Group (UKTCG), to name a few. In 2023, the organisation underwent a rebrand from Birmingham Tech to TechWM, with a view to build a stronger, more resilient economic future for the region as a whole. TechWM aims to achieve this goal by working to its three core values: - Encouraging and fostering collaboration across all sectors - Inspiring people from all walks of life to get into the tech sector - Creating a platform so people and businesses can celebrate their success
