Reading sits at the heart of the Thames Valley — Europe's largest tech cluster by several measures — and has the UK's highest digital density, almost twice that of its nearest competitor. Thames Valley Berkshire LEP counts roughly 56,300 digital tech specialists and 7,800 digital companies across Berkshire, with the digital sector accounting for about 14% of local employment (versus 5% nationally). Reading hosts the UK headquarters of Microsoft, Oracle and Cisco alongside a dense concentration of enterprise tech and telecoms (Huawei, Dell, Fujitsu, Vodafone's nearby Newbury HQ). The 56,300 figure covers Berkshire rather than Reading city alone, and a precise Reading-only YoY growth figure for 2024 is not separately published — both are flagged provisional.
