About Leicester

Software Development for Leicester's Textiles & Space Technology Sectors

Leicester is a city of remarkable diversity — both culturally and economically. The UK's largest textiles manufacturing cluster, with an estimated 1,500 factories, is undergoing digital transformation as brands demand supply-chain transparency. The University of Leicester's space-science department has contributed instruments to missions from Mars landers to the James Webb Space Telescope, and the National Space Centre makes the city a hub for space education and outreach. Leicester's food-manufacturing sector — led by Walkers Crisps and Samworth Brothers — is a major employer, and the city's cultural richness, exemplified by the Golden Mile and the Diwali celebrations (the largest outside India), makes it an attractive place for diverse tech talent.
