A global tech firm is to bring jobs to Merseyside <\/a>as it relocates from Singapore in a multi-million pound move. LogChain has announced plans to join the ranks of more than 1,000 digital and tech businesses in Liverpool.<\/p>\n The business has confirmed that alongside its move, it will invest up to \u00a34m in the Liverpool City Region<\/a> over the next three years. It joins businesses from China and India announcing their intentions to move to the city in the last few weeks.<\/p>\n LogChain\u2019s move to set up a headquarters in Liverpool has been welcomed by leaders at a national and regional level. Steve Rotheram<\/a>, Metro Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, said: “Moves like this help bring good jobs to the region and strengthen our links with the rest of the world.”<\/p>\n The Singaporean tech firm helps companies worldwide cut costs, speed up shipments and build more efficient supply chains by replacing outdated, paper\u2011heavy shipping processes with secure, legally recognised digital documentation. The news of the move to Liverpool comes as the government pushes forward its agenda on digital trade with technologies like e-Bills, digital identity, and AI driven logistics becoming central to global exports.<\/p>\n In January, one of China\u2019s leading vehicle manufacturers, Chery Commercial Vehicle announced that it would be creating its first ever European headquarters here in Liverpool<\/a>, bringing jobs, research and investment to the city\u2019s automotive sector. Shortly after this, Indian AI company Aivion confirmed it has based its own new European HQ<\/a> in Liverpool city centre<\/a>\u2019s Central Tech building.<\/p>\n Peter Kyle MP, Business and Trade Secretary, said: \u201cLogChain\u2019s decision to set up shop in Liverpool is a clear vote of confidence in the UK and the North West as we build the most innovative trading environment in the world. This move strengthens our tech ecosystem, boosts future exports, and shows the UK is the place to be for cutting edge digital trade.\u201d<\/p>\n The UK was the first G7 country to put electronic trade documents on the same level footing as paper documents, leading the way in modern global trade and strengthening the tech sector which is worth around \u00a31 trillion. LogChain helped deliver the world\u2019s first fully digitalised goods shipment in 2023.<\/p>\n Andrew Baird, LogChain chief operating officer<\/p>\n Andie McKeown, LogChain chief executive, said: \u201cThe UK\u2019s long-standing leadership in global trade is now reinforced by the legal foundations needed for the next era of digital commerce.<\/p>\n “LogChain has already executed the world\u2019s first fully digitalised movement of goods, and by relocating our global headquarters to the UK we\u2019re committing to scale trusted, interoperable digital trade infrastructure from a market that is setting the benchmark.\u201d<\/p>\n Steve Rotheram, Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, said: “I’m really proud that LogChain has chosen the Liverpool City Region as its UK base.<\/p>\n “We\u2019re a place that ‘gets’ trade, logistics and technology, and we’re serious about backing companies that are shaping the future of global commerce.<\/p>\n \u201cMoves like this help bring good jobs to the region and strengthen our links with the rest of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n The announcement coincides with UK\u2013Southeast Asia Tech Week where the UK is taking a delegation of AI and data companies to bang the drum for the UK\u2019s tech sector, with over 200 tech \u201cunicorns\u201d produced in the UK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Singapore firm is investing \u00a34m into the Liverpool City Region over the next three years Liverpool’s waterfront…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":758713,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,51,1700,393,4884,179,8892,16,15],"class_list":["post-758712","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-liverpool","tag-britain","tag-business","tag-economy","tag-england","tag-great-britain","tag-liverpool","tag-steve-rotheram","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116055846756878878","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/758712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=758712"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/758712\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/758713"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=758712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=758712"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=758712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Andrew](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/0_Andrew-Baird-Rotterdamjpeg.jpg\")
