About Southampton

Software Development for Southampton's Maritime & Marine Science Sector

Southampton's identity is inseparable from the sea. As the UK's premier cruise port and a major container terminal, the city's economy is deeply connected to global maritime trade. The National Oceanography Centre, housed at the University of Southampton's Waterfront Campus, conducts world-leading ocean and climate research. The university itself is a Russell Group institution with strengths in engineering, computer science, and web science — Sir Tim Berners-Lee holds a professorship here. Southampton Science Park provides incubation space for deep-tech startups, while the city's Itchen Riverside and Centenary Quay developments are creating new commercial space that attracts growing businesses away from the higher rents of London and the Thames Valley.
