Could your organisation help Greater Manchester close the digital divide? – The Greater Manchester Digital Ball

18th August 2026, 4:01 pm

Digital exclusion is a business issue as well as a social one.

When people cannot access technology, connectivity or digital skills, the effects reach far beyond the individual. Employers lose potential talent. Skills gaps widen. Entrepreneurship becomes less accessible. Communities miss opportunities created by regional growth.

The Greater Manchester Digital Ball gives businesses a practical way to respond.

On 19 March 2027, the region’s digital, technology and professional community will come together at the Kimpton Clocktower Hotel to raise funds for local projects through Forever Manchester.

Businesses can participate by sponsoring the event, hosting a table, buying tickets, offering a prize or simply helping spread the word.

Greater Manchester’s digital future will be stronger if more people can take part in it. We hope the pro-manchester network will help make that happen.
