Manchester, the original Silicon Valley…
 
This summer marks 75 years since the Ferranti Mark I entered service at The University of Manchester 🐝

Widely recognised as the world’s first commercially available general-purpose electronic computer, it helped transform computing from an academic experiment into a technology that would change the world 💫
 
From weather forecasting and engineering to the foundations of modern programming, its influence can still be felt today… 🌍
