Back in 2021, I collaborated with Cambridge Econometrics, Frost & Sullivan, and The Data City to analyse the North East’s potential in emerging markets like Fintech, Cybersecurity, Hydrogen, Renewable Energy, and IoT.
Our research aimed to identify key players, assess the North Eastโs market share, and explore growth opportunities. We focused on 28 markets but narrowed down to the top 16 with the highest potential for company growth, innovation, economic growth, inward investment, and skills jobs -that could build on existing firms, value chains, R&D, institutions and skills specialisms in the region.
(As of 2021) We rated the best 16 emerging market opportunities as:
**International Markets:**
1. Electric Vehicles
2. Energy Generation
3. Software Development
4. Energy Storage
**Emerging in International Markets:**
5. Autonomous Vehicles
6. Robotics
**National Markets:**
7. Financial Services
8. Healthcare Services
**Emerging in National Markets:**
9. FinTech
10. Cloud Computing
11. Bio Pharmaceuticals
12. Smart Grids
13. Cybersecurity
**Nascent in International Markets:**
14. Immersive Technologies
15. Payment Processing
16. Data Analytics
Some markets overlap, enhancing synergy; others stand alone.
