I got an IT position offer in London. The offer sounds quite good, so I am seriously considering accepting it and moving there.
The company info says it is based on the Wenthworth Street.
What kind of area is it, are there lots of IT companies?
Is it an Eastern part of London and how do you call this area?

Wentworth Street goes all the way back to the Middle Ages. It was named after the noble "house" of Wentworth, represented in the 17th century by the Earl of Strafford.

It is now in the oldest part of town called The City. Some have likened it to New York city's Wall St. At any rate, it is a major business center, especially for businesses connected with, or supporting financial operations, although it also has some residences. It is in the"eastern" part of town, although not in the newer "East End."
