Engineering new opportunities for small businesses – Digi-Tech Factory Norwich 

The UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund will be used to create a new Digi-Tech Factory in Norwich, providing a modern, industry-standard and future-proof environment to train local people to meet the skills shortages within the digital sector, providing top talent to businesses to help them grow. 

The Digi-Tech Factory will include 12 digital studios, for the teaching of digital based learning, and 5 e-labs. It will support hands-on learning in robotics, machine learning, virtual and augmented reality, hardware and infrastructure engineering and electronics. It will be home to a range of full and part-time courses, as well as apprenticeship learning, from creative media, to software and programming, to ‘hard’ digital skills relating to networking, infrastructure development, electronics and automated manufacturing.
