London is the Digital Tech Capital of Europe

In terms of access to talent, market, and capital there isn’t a better place in Europe

The Government runs a Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) which gives an initial 50% income tax break for investments up to £100,000: capital gains deferral and loss relief.

The London tech scene comprises thousands of companies, from multinationals like Google and Amazon, to fast-growing local companies like Transferwise and GoCardless, to physical hubs like Idea London and Google Campus.

Over 36 business accelerators like Seedcamp and Techstars, as well as over 70 co-working spaces like Tech Hub and Level39, and networking organizations like 3beards and Tech City UK.
