Midlands Cyber Hosts Australian Trade Delegation to Explore UK Expansion Opportunities
02 Jun 2025
Midlands Cyber was delighted to co-host an Australian Trade Delegation this week in Manchester, in collaboration with CyberNorth, CyNam, and the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade).
The visit was part of a wider programme aligned with CyberUK 2025 and brought together a dynamic group of Australian cyber businesses with key stakeholders from across the UK cyber ecosystem, including local authorities, Growth Hubs, and UK-based cyber companies.
Spotlighting UK-Australia Collaboration
The session served as a platform for Australian companies to pitch their capabilities, explore soft landing opportunities, and learn more about how to scale within the UK’s thriving cyber market. The level of innovation on display from the visiting companies reflected the strong potential for deepening commercial and research partnerships between the UK and Australia.
West Midlands Opportunities in Focus
A special thanks goes to Chris Orr of Worcestershire Growth Hub, who gave a compelling presentation on the West Midlands’ business ecosystem, highlighting the region’s unique assets, talent pipeline, and infrastructure for international companies looking to establish a UK base.
A Global Gateway for Cyber Growth
The event reinforced the UK’s reputation as a global gateway for cyber growth, and the Midlands as a highly attractive destination for foreign direct investment, supported by a collaborative network of clusters, government bodies, and innovation hubs. We hope the delegation enjoyed a successful and inspiring visit to CyberUK25 and look forward to building on this momentum with future engagement and partnership opportunities.
