We start the conversation with a fascinating look into West Midlands' rapidly emerging professional services technology which has seen a massive acceleration of tech trends in recent years.  We talk about the impact of The Kalifa Review on the UK’s Fintech sector and what this means for the region.  Time to market is a key priority for entrepreneurs and innovators and we  discuss how low code and no code are empowering startups.  SuperTech is focused on supporting businesses and building on the existing globally and nationally relevant established cluster and how it can help businesses  scale, all the while ensuring that as a community, it remains fit for future generations of changemakers.

SuperTech is a cross sector partnership designed to showcase the talent, innovation and investment potential of the West Midlands' professional services technology cluster  This supercluster aims to amplify the voice and the potential in sectors that include fintech, legaltech, prop tech, and insuretech. It is the first dedicated prof tech collaboration of its kind in the UK.
