The Hub @ Sunderland Software City believes that everyone is capable of bright ideas, whether creating a new social media platform, establishing a unique digital service, or solving the world's problems with a new tech solution.

Our Virtual Hub consists of 2 parts:

• Our community based in Slack to provide peer support, access to sector expertise, and a sounding board as you navigate your business’s journey
• Our resource library, based here, in Notion will include a directory of resources, information, signposting, and information to help support the development of yourself and your business

Below, you’ll find links to pages outlining the different resources, as well as a guide on how to use Slack, our online community’s code of conduct and inclusivity policy, as well as a schedule of our upcoming events.

There’s loads to pick and mix from, so pour a cuppa and get stuck in!!
