About Workstation
From a tech talent business by the Thames to websites, AI agents and LLM training.
Where it all began
Workstation started in 2000 at Putney Bridge, London, with a simple idea: connect great technology people with the businesses that need them. It was a tech talent business first, and that habit of matching the right people and tools to the right problem has stayed with us ever since.
Over the years the company has moved, changed hands and changed shape, from talent to hardware and software, and now to AI. This page tells that story, one milestone at a time.
