On 16 September 2026, techUK will bring together senior leaders from across industry and government to launch its forthcoming report, Digital Infrastructure 2035 – The backbone of Britain’s future economy, highlighting the key role of digital infrastructure as the foundation for all future economic activity.  

The report argues that the UK build an economy that is connected and digital by design, and that with the right strategy for digital infrastructure the UK can attract inward investment, boost resilience and national security, and support long-term growth.  

The UK's ability to scale a $1tn tech company, realise the full benefits of the AI revolution, continue to grow its thriving ecosystem of tech start-ups, and transform public services, will be built on the foundations of its digital infrastructure.  

Join us to explore what good looks like by the end of this Parliament and how the UK can harness the full benefits of the next wave of digital innovation. The event will set out techUK's recommendations for government and industry, and the milestones we believe the UK must hit to remain competitive.
