Managing the impact of COVID-19, supply chain disruption and high energy prices on your business

techUK members will face challenges around managing the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, disruptions to UK supply chains and increasing energy costs. Below you can find some guidance and support from techUK and the UK Government.

2022 will pose challenges for techUK members as the world continues to manage the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, UK supply chains remain disrupted as a result of global shortages and the continued effects of Brexit, while energy costs for businesses are expected to remain high.

techUK continues to monitor each of these issues and is providing updates to the UK Government. If you are facing business challenges because of either COVID-19, supply chain disruption or high energy costs please let us know by emailing [email protected]

Keeping us up to date of any challenges you are facing will allow us to direct you to available support as well as helping us make the Government aware of the challenges the tech sector is facing.
