LCR Activate, in association with Praetura Ventures and Business Cloud, has launched the inaugural LCR Tech Climbers 2019 list, celebrating the fastest-growing and most innovative tech scale-ups in Liverpool City Region.

Judges from LCR Activate and Praetura Ventures considered nominations from businesses which demonstrate significant operations in LCR to create the list of 35 finalists. The list aims to highlight the region’s growing tech sector and give SMEs the opportunity to put their business on the map.

The result is a list of the best tech scale-ups in LCR which are providing a unique tech solution to an existing problem and are creating disruption in their target sectors, including healthcare, education, manufacturing, and tech for good. The 2019 list also includes the region’s Ones to Watch – up-and-coming businesses that are active in the region, and are on course for great success in the future, with new and exciting technology and solutions.
