Celebrating the 2026 Tech 200: showcasing the UK’s fastest-growing public sector tech innovators

techUK is pleased to once again partner with Tussell and The Data City on the 2026 Tech 200 list.

The list recognises the 200 fastest‑growing technology suppliers serving the UK public sector. This growth is calculated using publicly released procurement invoice data, collected and analysed by Tussell. A company’s placement on the list is determined their percentage growth in direct public sector revenue between the last FY23/24 and FY24/25.

This year’s list is especially exciting for techUK as a record 31 members have made the list, up from 27 last year. This achievement reflects not only their impressive growth but also the strength and depth of the wider membership community. We recognise and celebrate our members’ growth and positive contribution to digital transformation in the public sector.

We are thrilled to have been recognised in the 2026 Tech200 Awards for our contribution to the UK public sector. We work with over 200 UK public sector bodies across all sectors delivering transformative benefits by streamlining complex cross-agency workflows, improving case handling, reducing cycle times and strengthening service resilience, ultimately improving civil servants and citizens experiences.
