Created by Clifford White and launched in 1999 to herald the dawn of the new millennium,21stcentury.co.uk was internationally recognised in the early 00’s as a leading UK innovation and technology news website, and was featured widely in popular magazines throughout the first decade of the 21st century.

Tomorrows World Live
In addition to magazine and newspaper coverage,21stcentury.co.uk partnered with the Tomorrows World Live Exhibition, running a series of competitions to promote the show, and securing a stand at the event to promote the 21stcentury.co.uk website.
21stcentury.co.uk was first born as an idea back in 1995, when Clifford White – music composer and producer of the 80’s hit album Ascension – purchased the domain name with a view to creating a kind of ‘Tomorrows World on the web’. Tomorrows World had been a popular TV programme on the BBC during the 80’s – a sort of precursor to ‘The Gadget Show’ – and Clifford had enjoyed seeing where the latest technology was headed, with it’s prospects for a brighter future. Always having been something of a sci-fi geek, Clifford’s love of Star Trek and the works of Arthur C. Clarke, Robert Sheckley and Douglas Adams, Clifford quickly realised the potential of the internet as an information resource, and he envisioned the 21stcentury.co.uk website as a ‘one-stop-shop’ for all things futuristic and technological, fusing articles about the latest gadgets and technological marvels, with ruminations about Science, Physics, the environment and other topics of global interest. >>> Read more abut the conception of 21C here.
Well written, easy to read science related stories that make the most of the capabilities of publishing on the internet.
– Computer Active Web Guide.
2016 sees the relaunch of 21stcentury.co.uk to be bigger, better and brighter than ever before. This time, rather than to focus on the near impossible task of reporting on an entire planets technological progress, the new 21stcentury.co.ukis going to focus solely on the UK industry, so often overlooked by the mainstream media.
We are talking to doctors, professors and scientists, technology gurus, designers and developers who live and/or work in the UK industry, and are focusing our efforts to publicise the innovative work and scientific advances being made in the UK.
