15 Kosovo tech companies in London: the first UK-Kosovo Tech Hub trade mission
Fifteen companies, 23 delegates, one week. The UK-Kosovo Tech Hub took Kosovo’s ICT sector to the British market three months after opening its doors in Prishtina.
From 21 to 25 September 2026, 23 representatives of 15 Kosovo ICT companies spent a week in London meeting British companies, partners and institutions. It was the first Kosovo Trade Mission to the United Kingdom organised by the UK-Kosovo Tech Hub, STIKK’s initiative at Tech Park Prishtina, launched in June.
The call in August offered places to 12 companies. Fifteen went: GEN Z Digital, Global CT, Pretera, Sigma Technology SEE, TENTON, Cortado, Nerdy Creative, Arquail, Tarantula, imbus Peja, Kosbit, Airise, British Academy of Technology, Code Invention and Kutia.
Digital Bridge 2026
The centre of the week was Digital Bridge 2026: UK & Kosovo in Tech, held on 22 September in Blackfriars. A panel on cooperation between the two tech sectors opened the day. Three rounds of B2B meetings, arranged in advance with UK companies, followed, and the day closed with a reception. More than 50 UK guests registered.
Fairs, embassy, partners
The delegation spent the next two days at eCommerce Expo (23 September) and Big Data LDN (24 September), the London trade fairs for e-commerce, data and AI. The STIKK Board met Ambassador Ilir Kapiti at the Embassy of the Republic of Kosovo in London, and the Ambassador joined the delegation for dinner.
The mission was supported by ProCredit Bank Kosova and organised in partnership with the British Embassy in Kosovo, the British-Kosovar Chambers of Commerce and the Embassy of the Republic of Kosovo in London.
What comes next
A week in London does not open a market. It opens doors, and the work is in what follows. Since the mission, the Hub has opened contacts with techUK, Digital Catapult, the Alan Turing Institute and Enterprise Europe Network partners in the UK. Companies working on the UK market, or planning to, can write to [email protected] to be included in the Hub’s next steps.
