Marks & Clerk partners with Tech Climbers Liverpool City Region 2025 

List reveal: Wednesday 30 April 2025

Tech Climbers is back in the Liverpool City Region for 2025, and with the region’s trailblazing tech hubs securing pivotal public and private investment as part of major government innovation plans, the startups, insights, and success emerging from this year’s campaign are set to be bigger and better than ever.  

To support the continued growth of Liverpool’s vibrant tech clusters, at Tech Climbers, we’re on a mission to shine a light on the leading lights in the city region, which are relentlessly scaling their product-led innovations to help solve social, economic and environmental challenges, as part of an industry-recognised, publicised list.  

Over the past two months, Liverpool’s tech ecosystem has made national headlines for its inclusion in the government’s £100 million innovation programme and the announcement of a new AI hub planned for Merseyside.

Join us on April 30th as we reveal the trailblazing tech businesses in the Liverpool City Region that have made our annual Tech Climbers list for 2025!

Hosted by award-winning entrepreneur and BBC presenter, Sonya Barlow, the event will showcase the fast-growing tech businesses in the city region. A series of panels and networking will build up to the big reveal of the evening as we celebrate the industry’s leading lights at One Fine Day.
