“It makes perfect sense for us to be in Platform, it’s a real hub for tech in Leeds. It’s where the tech community connects and where the community’s events happen. It’s also ideal location wise for us, our staff and our customers as we have offices both in Leeds and at Bruntwood SciTech’s Circle Square in Manchester, and we frequently move between both. We’ve been able to flexibly expand with Bruntwood SciTech and now have the capacity to train 40 future coders instead of 18, and have a new cohort every three weeks rather than 12.”
