Economy 2030: An Agenda for Tech-Enabled Growth

Economy 2030: An Agenda for Tech-Enabled Growth sets out a series of steps to reignite the UK's economic dynamism, revive productivity and rekindle growth, ensuring the economy is fit to face the 2030s.

Technology must be central to the UK’s growth strategy. The tech sector is a growth engine in its own right, creating high-paying jobs and generating investment. It boosts productivity across every other sector as businesses adopt and apply new technologies. And it strengthens the government's other growth levers: a skilled workforce, for instance, achieves more when equipped with the right technology.
