This event is a very important step in BGTC's strategy to create interconnected innovative communities across the UK.
The British Global Talent Council (BGTC) is an exclusive community of professionals united by their passion for large-scale projects, development, and transformative change — a drive we define as vigour and passionarity.
We are officially launching the Manchester Society. This event is a very important step in BGTC's strategy to create interconnected innovative communities across the UK. The Manchester Society brings together bright minds in technology, arts and science to stimulate innovation and growth in the North.
The Manchester Mission
We believe that the catalyst for innovation is bringing together the key pillars of Manchester's world-class dynamic economy. Therefore, our mission is:
- Fostering the next generation of billion-dollar tech companies by connecting founders, talent, and capital in one of Europe's fastest-growing tech hubs.
- Championing the creative sector, from global media giants at MediaCityUK to independent design studios, making Manchester a world-class cultural hub.
- Connecting world-leading researchers in fields like graphene and advanced materials with industry to drive real-world commercial applications.
By creating a structured ecosystem for collaboration, the Society will host exclusive events, industry-specific roundtables, and networking opportunities. The goal is to facilitate "creative collision" — the intersection of diverse disciplines where groundbreaking ideas and ventures are born.
"Manchester's tech scene is exploding, and this Society is at its core. It's not just a network; it's a catalyst. The connections made here are genuinely shaping the future of the Northern Powerhouse." — Sarah Jones, Co-Founder, MCR Digital (Unicorn)
Through carefully curated events, discussion forums and networking, Manchester Society creates a space for collaboration between different industries, stimulating growth and the exchange of ideas. One of the first events will be The Future of AI in the North: A deep dive into AI's transformative impact on Northern industries, featuring keynotes from leading researchers and tech unicorns.

The Manchester Society is a call to action, a challenge to think outside the box, and an opportunity to contribute to a bright future. Join our community!
