We're building the next UK-headquartered engineering powerhouse.
Rooted in engineering heritage, the UK has the talent and industrial capability to lead in delivering the next generation of mission-critical systems - those that underpin national resilience. That opportunity demands urgency, focus, and credibility earned by solving hard problems at speed.
Rowden was founded in 2017 to meet that ambition. While others concentrated on enterprise IT, we focused on the edge, where armed forces, first responders, intelligence analysts, and critical industries face challenging conditions and compressed decision-making timelines. We saw how commercial advances in connectivity and computing could be re-engineered to serve those missions directly.
Since then, we’ve independently built our position as one of the UK’s fastest-growing engineering businesses, delivering complex integration programmes, investing in sovereign manufacturing and UK talent, and supporting global operations at scale.
Grounded in real-world impact, we deliver practical and pragmatic solutions to hard problems.
Real-Time Edge Focus
We believe in mission-critical, real-time solutions where conventional IT falls short. With 5G and LEO networks expanding, the far edge becomes a natural arena for improvement. Advancements such as AI and sensing shouldn’t be out of reach, regardless of the distance from a data centre.
Customers and Culture
In a world awash with look-alike platforms and generic solutions, we believe enduring partnerships truly matter. We stay grounded, tackling the unglamorous yet pivotal engineering tasks - “taking out the trash and cleaning the sewers” - to build exactly what’s needed to succeed. Genuine collaboration and dependable service are undervalued, yet essential for mission-critical outcomes.
Hiding Complexity
Complexity should never burden end users, and lengthy training should be a thing of the past. Thoughtful design and rigorous systems engineering ensure advanced solutions remain safe and simple to operate.
Foundational Sectors
Our government and military work is not a steppingstone, and supporting the national resilience of the UK and its allies is non-negotiable. These sectors demand dependable capabilities that shape our expertise as we responsibly expand to serve new customers.
