Blur Group set to relocate global HQ from London to Exeter

Technology company Blur Group has announced plans to relocate its global HQ to a site in Exeter where it has set up a R&D base earlier this year.

As a news report reveals, the move is set to create a number of jobs in Exeter and it will employ 35 members of staff in the city by the end of September.

However, the company also revealed that it’s not giving up on its former location altogether, since both its London site, along with its office in Dallas, are remain as regional commercial hubs. A total of 35 employees will remain in the capital by the end of the month.

Philip Letts, Blur Group chief executive, said: "Exeter has the right ingredients to become Europe’s San Francisco, and South Western UK the new Silicon Valley. The South West combines innovation and technology excellence, a great mix of universities with both academic and venture focus and an established reputation in attracting leading tech firms while providing great incubation and support for earlier stage business.”

"It’s a combination that has worked well for the US and has the potential to do the same in the UK" he added.
