East London Tech City (informally Tech City) is a technology hub located in London, United City broadly occupies the part of London's East End between Old Street and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford. Cisco Systems, Facebook, Google, Intel Corporation, McKinsey & Company and Vodafone are among the companies which have committed to invest in the hub. Imperial College London, Loughborough University and University College London have agreed to be academic partners of the hub. The hub is modelled on Silicon Valley in the United States. In 2008, there were around 15 high-tech companies in close proximity of the Silicon Roundabout, which forms the heart of Tech City. Plans to help accelerate the growth of the hub were announced by Prime Minister David Cameron in a speech given in east London on 4 November 2010. By 2011, approximately 200 high-tech firms were occupying the area, signifying a rapid increase in interest.
