Commenting on his appointment, Gedye said: “The technology sector is set for sustained growth and continues to attract both significant venture capital and international investment across the UK and the wider EMEA region. “It is currently seeing heightened demand from businesses and consumers resulting from the accelerated digitisation of business processes, communications and data networks in the wake of the current pandemic.”   To send feedback, e-mail lucy.alderson@egi.co.uk or tweet @LucyAJourno or @estatesgazette
