Business in Newcastle upon Tyne
Newcastle is the commercial centre of the North East and its economy has shifted decisively towards services and technology. There is a substantial digital and software cluster around the Quayside and Newcastle Helix, a large financial and business services base, two universities and a major hospital trust, and offshore and subsea engineering along the Tyne serving the energy sector. Retail and nightlife in the centre are regional draws. The Quayside conversions are the awkward buildings — handsome, listed in places, and never wired for what the tenants now do in them.

Newcastle upon Tyne — common questions
We are a Newcastle software firm with staff spread across the North East. What suits that?
A cloud phone system where an extension is a person rather than a desk, so home, office and client-site all behave the same. What matters more is upload speed rather than download, because pushing builds and joining calls is the opposite shape to browsing. It is worth sizing the connection for what your engineers do, not for the headcount.
Does SCG actually cover the North East, or is it a stretch from Bolton?
It is covered, and the honest framing is that this is service-area coverage rather than a local director living there. You get the same products, the same round-the-clock fault desk and a named contact; what you do not get is somebody twenty minutes away. For many businesses that is fine, and where it is not we would rather you knew before signing.
