The UK hasn’t got any memorable tech company that is on the world stage that the public knows.

The only ones are Dyson and perhaps ARM which are the long lasting ones the UK has made.

Monzo, Wise, Starling and Deliveroo are the latest 2010 cohort the UK has made and that’s about it.

The latter cohort may die out or get acquired by FAANG or run out of money and shut down.

Compared to the US, the UK keeps selling their companies abroad rather than acquiring them. The US keeps creating more and more successful tech companies.

Once ARM chose to IPO in the US I knew it was completely over.

Even the LSE is part owned by the US (Microsoft), the UK is slowly giving away their technological sovereignty, not exactly the tech world leaders they keep saying they are.

It is a real shame.

The UK isn't doing that on purpose, it's a natural evolution of not having super-firms like Google and Amazon that have the capital and size to acquire and grow domestic companies. Which itself is an evolution of not having a domestic market the size of Chna or the US (the only two countries with a bigger tech sector than the UK).
