The UK government has unveiled a primary strategy to reach a £1 trillion tech sector valuation, driven by AI, quantum computing, and cybersecurity.
The Digital and Technologies Sector Plan calls for deep public-private partnerships and investment in infrastructure, skills, and emerging technologies to sustain growth.
Despite momentum in cities like Manchester and Bristol, the sector faces challenges including talent shortages, chip supply tensions, and uneven regional access.
The government is offering tax incentives, R&D grants, and green innovation support while calling for reforms to attract global tech talent.
Geopolitical risks and sustainability remain priorities, with AI integration into healthcare, finance, and energy sectors as key growth drivers.
