Tramshed Tech - The Home Of Start Ups In Wales

What the Company Does?

Tramshed's core offering centres around three key pillars; spaces, business support services and skills programmes. The atmosphere is a busy one. Lots of conversations going on in many different spaces. There are three meeting rooms and a variety of sofas for meetings or informal chats.

The Current Landscape

90% of startups fail but Wales is currently outperforming the rest of the UK in regard to new business starts by 30%. According to Beauhurst, Wales is currently home to almost 138,000 companies, 1215 have been identified as high growth, innovative businesses. Despite the potential, some of it remains untapped: Wales is home to 3.5% of the UK’s high-growth companies but only received 2.5% of the UK’s equity investment deals. External investment, in particular, equity investment is an important catalyst to growth.

Company Birth Story

In 2015, Louise Harris, Co-Founder and CEO at Tramshed Tech identified a need for collaborative spaces tailored to support tech, digital and creative businesses in Wales. Tramshed Tech was founded in 2016 with a mission to bring this demographic together to meet, collaborate, innovate and grow. Today, Tramshed Tech is far more than just a space to work, it has a range of business support programmes and skills training to include an award-winning Startup Academy and a network of strategic partners across the UK and Europe.

The Solution
