About us

Digital Capability Exchange UK was founded on a shared vision among three technology leaders: Andrew Radcliffe, James Bunting and Tom Lawson. 

Technology consultancy businesses frequently experience a widespread industry challenge: the need to be able to scale rapidly teams filled with great, permanently employed, tech talent in line with project requirements.

 

The founders of Digital Capability Exchange UK have experienced this complex problem first-hand in their respective consultancies – Spyrosoft, Leighton and Opencast.

A trusted tech talent eco-system

Aligning talent availability needs with future project demands can be incredibly difficult.

Available talent doesn’t necessarily match the exact demand a client may have, which can lead to highly skilled people being underutilised, or conversely, crucial projects stalling due to costly and time-consuming recruitment processes.

Digital Capability Exchange UK is a not-for-profit organisation that was created to maximise on a dual opportunity: to ensure talented teams were consistently engaged in genuinely exciting, impactful projects, and to bring together trusted technology consultancies and give them access to a wider pool of specialist tech talent precisely when they need it.

​

Our aim is simple.

 

We work to facilitate a more flexible and efficient use of top-tier talent across a trusted ecosystem of members, supporting the success of the companies involved, helping start-ups avoid cost and scale challenges without the price tag and fostering the health of the UK tech sector.
