We make meaningful introductions and engineer opportunities for collaboration across organisations. Everything we do helps make Brighton & Hove a great place to bring tech to life. By connecting individuals, businesses, and organisations, we’re building a thriving community where ideas grow, careers flourish, and the future of tech is shaped collaboratively.
We support the local tech and digital meetup scene, working with 40 tech and digital user groups across the city. Meetups are free to attend, hybrid, and available to people at all levels, in order to remove as many barriers to entry as possible.
Introducing EVOLVE: Shaping Tomorrow
EVOLVE is our flagship annual event, a one-day tech gathering that brings together students, professionals, and businesses to explore how technology can drive progress with purpose. Our first year welcomed over 1,000 attendees, 50+ exhibitors, and 30+ sessions, celebrating the diversity, creativity, and ambition of Brighton’s growing tech scene.
More than just a tech event, it’s a celebration of the region’s vibrant tech community and a space for learning, connection, and meaningful conversations that drive real change.
Silicon Brighton’s Co-Founder, Grace Prior, says:
“At Silicon Brighton, we’ve always believed in the power of community to drive innovation. Everything we do – from supporting meetups to creating spaces for connection and learning – is about helping people come together and shape what’s next in tech. We’re proud to partner with UK Tech Week to showcase the creativity, ambition, and collaboration that make Brighton & Hove such a unique force in the UK’s digital landscape.”
