Aberdeen's tech cluster is being reshaped by the city's pivot from oil and gas to energy transition: Opportunity North East (ONE) reports more than 300 digital tech businesses in north-east Scotland employing close to 4,400 people and turning over more than £520m a year, having roughly doubled in size over the past five years. The ecosystem spans EnergyTech, AgriTech and RegTech, with anchor employers including Wood (headquartered in Aberdeen), TotalEnergies UK's digital North Sea operations, Baker Hughes, and the Net Zero Technology Centre. Skills Development Scotland projects the professional, scientific and technical sector will add 2,400 jobs in the city between 2024 and 2031. The 4,400 figure covers north-east Scotland rather than Aberdeen city alone — flagged provisional.
