Last night Didgeroo attended the launch of The Source - a brand new business directory covering all the wonderful creative and technical small businesses in the Shoreditch area.

Our neighbourhood here in Shoreditch is really starting to devlope a village-like sense of community amongst local buisnesses. This publication goes some way to solidify relationship by by listing all of us in one beautifully produced book.

On 10 October, Didgeroo was asked to attend a round-table discussion with HRH Prince Andrew, The Duke of York. (more photos here).

The discussion was part of the TechCity UK initiative.

Prince Andrew wanted to know what he could personally do to assist companies like Didgeroo. I made the suggestion that it would be helpful if tech starts-ups could somehow tap into the wealth of knowledge that The City Of London, just a 1/4 mile down the road, has to offer.  His Royal Highness told us that he had many friends in The City so he would ask them and us over to his place for a get-together.

So on 20 October, Didgeroo went to Buckingham Palace!

It was a wonderful evening, and an excellent opportunity to meet some very important people. It was also great to see some many friends and colleagues from the Silicon Roundabout area in attendance.

On 9 September 2011, our office was visited by Lord Sassoon in his role as Commercial Secretary of UK Trade and Investment (UKTI).

UKTI have been busy setting up the TecCity UK initiative which hopes to encourage the growth of tech companies in Silicon Roundabout.

Lord Sasson was very interested in Didgeroo and the other tech startups we share our office with. There is obviously a growing number of companies like Didgeroo in the Old St / Shoreditch areas. The question is, what can the government do help and support us?

Didgeroo has moved office - just around the corner.

After a fantastic 18-months sharing office space with a bunch of tech start-ups on Hoxton St, it was time for Didgeroo to say goodbye.  Our landlord, Songkick.com,  required more space (well done guys!) so we had to move.

Shoreditch is booming with tech start-ups at the moment. The Silicon Roundabout and East London Tech City initiatives make for an exciting and vibrant place for our company to base itself. With this in mind we didn't want to move far, in fact our new office is just around the corner at:

The Hoxton Mix
86 - 90 Paul Street (third floor)
London, EC2A 4NE
