This achievement represents a significant step forward for Safetech as it develops innovative security solutions to protect the UK and creates skilled British jobs.
Safetech Innovations launched in May 2023 at Plexal Stratford, the innovation hub for tech change-makers and the legacy site of the 2012 Olympic Park.

Cyber Runway, the UK's largest cyber accelerator, is powered by Plexal and funded by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) in collaboration with Deloitte and the Centre for Secure Information Technologies. Cyber Runway provides critical resources, guidance, and support to UK's community of security leaders and innovators, and addresses the most pressing challenges facing the cybersecurity sector.
