Western Morning News
|June 25, 2026
THE South West of England recorded its strongest equity investment performance in years in Q1 2026, nearly double the national growth rate, as Tech South West brought the region’s high-growth story to London.
Held during London Tech Week, the annual Tech South West London Showcase saw record numbers of investment funds attend, meeting companies from across the region.
According to the latest insight from Beauhurst, deal volumes in the region rose 11% in the first quarter of 2026 and total investment value surged 66% on the same period last year, well ahead of the 34% national value growth recorded across the UK as a whole.
At the event, Tech South West launched its latest quarterly report, titled The Lowdown SW Investment Briefing: Themed Sovereignty and Opportunity in a Fractured World. The report features news and insight from investors, policy-makers, founders and industry leaders, with a deep dive into defence, clean energy, agritech and other regional powerhouse industries.
