IBD - New Locations in UK

Hello,

Recently came across some boutiques in the UK, significantly outside of London - in Manchester for example. I knew this was more apparent in the USA that many boutique firms existed outside of the large IBD hub(s), but didn't expect it to be the case here.

My questions about this are as follows:

- How do I go about finding more of these boutique(s) and different locations across the UK? (Using LinkedIn currently).

- How long has this been going on for (expansion into Manchester + other locations), and how will this reflect in the future - is it continuously growing or a relatively small niche?

- Finally - assuming it will be, but will lateralling into EB/BB be possible?

TIA.
