In collaboration with Bristol and Bath Cyber, we explore the South West’s cyber security investment opportunity and how the region fits into the UK’s fast-growing cyber economy.

Backed by nationally significant assets, world-class research, and a steady pipeline of technically strong companies, the region consistently produces cyber innovation, particularly in regulated, defence-aligned, and security-critical markets. What’s been missing is not capability, but conversion into a consistent, growth-stage investment.

The report looks at:

  • How South West cyber investment stacks up nationally
  • Why deal volumes remain steady while investment value fluctuates
  • Where investor confidence and lead capital make the biggest difference
  • Priority cyber opportunity areas for investors right now

Key highlights include:

  • The UK cyber security sector now includes 2,000+ companies and generates £13bn+ in annual revenue
  • The South West represents ~8% of UK cyber firms and ~9% of sector employment
  • From 2020 to 2024, the region accounted for 3–10% of UK cyber deals by volume each year
  • Deal flow is consistent, but scaling into larger growth rounds is the next big opportunity
