Supporting Birmingham businesses
Birmingham is the UK's second city and the largest economy outside London. Its central business district around Colmore Row, Snow Hill, Brindleyplace and the new Paradise development holds a big concentration of law firms, accountants, banks, insurers and consultancies. HSBC UK moved its head office to Birmingham, and several national firms have large regional or national hubs in the city. The HS2 station being built at Curzon Street is reshaping the eastern side of the centre.
Manufacturing remains a big part of the city's identity. Jaguar Land Rover's Castle Bromwich site, Cadbury's Bournville factory, now owned by Mondelēz, and thousands of engineering and component suppliers across the West Midlands make up a large manufacturing supply chain. The Jewellery Quarter is home to hundreds of jewellery makers and creative businesses, and Digbeth has become a hub for digital, creative and media businesses. The NEC and ICC host conferences and exhibitions throughout the year. Universities include the University of Birmingham, Aston University, Birmingham City University and University College Birmingham.
Professional services firms need tightly secured Microsoft 365, MFA, Conditional Access and protection from impersonation and invoice fraud. Manufacturers and suppliers need ERP and production systems backed up, networks segmented, and security evidence for automotive and aerospace customers. Jewellery Quarter businesses need secure e-commerce sites and payment systems. Digital and creative firms want fast, reliable networks and well-managed laptops. Event and hospitality businesses need booking, payment and guest Wi-Fi that hold up on busy days.
