Yorkshire-based software consultancy The Curve has expanded into Leeds as it looks to meet growing demand for its technology development services across the North of England.
Headquartered in Sheffield, The Curve has now taken up space at Platform, the tech and science hub next to Leeds train station.
The company has also appointed Alina Eden Cornea as regional partnerships and growth lead to support the move.
The Curve, which saw ARR increase by 49% to £1.8m in its last results, specialises in designing and delivering complete bespoke solutions for organisations in sectors including healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture and professional services.
The business now has a team of 28 and plans to increase that by another 10 in the next year.
It has won a variety of national and international contract wins and worked with over 100 organisations – achieving its success without any external funding.
“We’ve been building relationships in Leeds throughout the year, hosting events and engaging with the local tech community, including at the Leeds Digital Ball,” said Paul Ridgway, CEO of The Curve.
“The response has been fantastic, and there’s clearly strong demand for the complete technology solutions we deliver.
“Alina already knows the region well and brings genuine passion for connecting people and communities. Having her on the ground in Leeds means we can strengthen existing relationships and stay closely connected to the local ecosystem as we grow.”
Eden Cornea added: “I took this position because I’m highly technical and experienced in understanding the different pains and challenges across different sectors.
“I enjoy talking to people, understanding their needs, and offering the right solution.
“Because The Curve creates everything bespoke, solutions can be tailored to different businesses. We’ve seen this demand firsthand and are proving we can deliver, regardless of complexity.”
