LORCA Announces Additions to Cybersecurity Program

The London Office for Rapid Cybersecurity Advancement (LORCA) announced its third round of cybersecurity companies that will be joining its program to address the market need of industry today. The 15 "scaleups" responded to an open call and were invited to pitch their solutions to address the focus areas identified by the association: security by design, basics and beyond. According to LORCA, this round of companies is the most "international yet," with companies from Italy, Spain and South Korea entering the program. Margot James, Minister for Digital, said, “Ahead of London Tech Week, it’s great to see that LORCA is now welcoming international companies to the capital, making this a truly global effort to ensure we have a Britain that’s fit for the future.” The 15 companies will take part in a bespoke progam designed around each of their needs, which will be delivered by Plexal's innovation team, the Centre for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT) at Queen’s University Belfast, and Deloitte’s cyber team.
