The UK Spending Review: what does it mean for the tech sector?

By
Body

On this week’s episode of Top in Tech, Megan Stagman, Director, is joined by Fergus Cameron-Watt, Senior Associate, to unpack the UK government’s recent spending review and its implications for the tech sector.

Megan and Fergus explore how the Spending Review reflects the government’s shifting priorities, with notable gains for the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) and the backing of the new sovereign AI unit. They assess what these developments mean for start-ups, digital infrastructure, and tech suppliers to the government, and situate this in the context of a flurry of forthcoming strategies (including the Industrial Strategy and the Digital and AI Roadmap).
