The people behind the #includedesign campaign, who have been lobbying the government to add a sixth pillar of Creative subjects into the English Baccalaureate (EBacc), have launched a new campaign highlighting the “Hypocrisy of Tech City”.
Tech City is the 'brand' name given by the government to the creative technology community in and around Shoreditch in east London. According to some estimates, there are more than 3,000 creative tech firms in this area of London employing over 50,000 people.
The government’s aim is to encourage continued investment throughout this area of London – to appeal not only to small and agile startups but the bigger tech companies like Google. The ultimate ambition is to create a tech hub for Europe that rivals the likes of Silicon Valley.
