The new roles will be based in Manchester, Leeds, and Birmingham, focusing on artificial intelligence, digital services, and quantum computing.
Investment Details
The investment plan was unveiled by the UK Government at the G7 Summit on June 16, 2026, as part of a broader set of international commitments to AI and clean energy. Hexaware will expand its delivery center in Birmingham and establish new R&D centers in Manchester and Leeds. The initiative aims to accelerate innovation across emerging technologies, develop local talent, advance research, and drive modernization in citizen and public services.

We have very high ambitions for our growth, creating impact in the UK and proudly supporting the Government's inclusive vision for AI. Our investments are focused on developing young talent, working with unique published datasets, and collaborating with government at all levels across the country to create a positive impact for the citizens of the UK. These investments in AI research, digital innovation for citizen services, and talent incubation will create meaningful social impact while fueling and accelerating the UK's long-term economic growth."
