Manchester tech companies raised a record £532m of funding in 2022 – a 50 per cent increase on 2021’s figures. The new data came during a visit to Manchester by Tech Minister and co-chair of the Digital Skills Council Paul Scully for the Digital Skills Festival. Collectively these companies have raised over £1.8bn in venture capital funding in the past five years and last year tech companies in the city raised more than European capital cities including Lisbon, Rome, Brussels and Warsaw. These are just some of the businesses in Manchester that have been named as futurecorns – fast-growing tech companies that are expected to be worth over $1bn in the future. Digital skills companies also provide training in the soft tech skills companies of all sizes need.
