UK Tech Week is a nationwide celebration of innovation, collaboration, and talent across the UK’s technology sector. Taking place from 16-20 March 2026, the week brings together regional tech festivals, industry bodies, startups, investors, and major organisations to showcase the strength and diversity of the UK tech ecosystem. From cutting-edge developments in AI and digital transformation to grassroots community initiatives, UK Tech Week highlights the people and ideas driving progress across every region and nation of the UK.

Through a packed programme of conferences, workshops, networking events, and showcases, the week provides opportunities to learn, connect, and share best practice. By uniting regional tech hubs and national partners such as Startup Coalition and techUK, UK Tech Week shines a spotlight on the UK as a whole, demonstrating how local ecosystems contribute to a powerful national story. It is designed to inspire collaboration, support growth, and celebrate the role of technology in shaping the future of business, society, and the economy.

Baroness Jones of Whitchurch, Minister for the Future Digital Economy and Online Safety at the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, said:

"UK Tech Week is a great initiative that celebrates these achievements and showcases the leading role tech ecosystems in all regions and nations across our country play in strengthening our economy, innovating and problem solving, and improving people's everyday lives."
