Manchester has become the UK's second digital economy, anchored by MediaCityUK in Salford, Spinningfields financial district, and a Northern Quarter tech scene that rivals any in Europe. We give Manchester organisations the structured data they need to compete — delivered with 99.8% accuracy and full GDPR compliance.
Sector-specific data extraction built around Greater Manchester's core industries
MediaCityUK hosts the BBC, ITV, dock10, and hundreds of production companies. We extract audience data, scheduling information, commissioning trends, and rights marketplace listings for media organisations operating in Salford and across the North West.
Spinningfields is home to major banks, asset managers, and professional services firms. We aggregate market data, regulatory announcements, and competitor intelligence from public financial sources, formatted to meet the requirements of Manchester's growing financial sector.
Greater Manchester's integrated health and care system is one of the largest in England. We extract publicly available NHS performance data, procurement notices, clinical trial registrations, and health technology assessments for suppliers, consultancies, and healthcare analytics firms.
From the Arndale to ASOS competitors and Boohoo's fast-fashion market, Manchester has a significant fashion retail footprint. We provide automated price tracking, product range monitoring, and stock availability data across online and multi-channel retailers.
Manchester Airport and the surrounding logistics corridor make Greater Manchester one of the UK's key distribution hubs. We monitor freight rates, warehouse availability listings, carrier performance data, and supply chain tender opportunities for logistics operators.
The University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan are prolific research producers. We extract grant funding data, research output summaries, spinout company registrations, and knowledge transfer partnership listings for innovation-focused clients.

Greater Manchester's devolved health system and the presence of major NHS trusts, plus proximity to AstraZeneca in Macclesfield, creates demand for healthcare procurement, clinical, and regulatory data.
Manchester's Northern Quarter and NOMA district have attracted agencies, SaaS companies, and digital consultancies. We support product and growth teams with market data, lead generation, and competitive analysis.
