techUK Code of Practice

Our Code of Practice outlines the standards and expectations we place on our staff, members and visitors to ensure we uphold techUK's values and to make our environment inclusive, respectful and collaborative for all.

The government will set out a new Industrial Decarbonisation Strategy in quarter two which will focus on how UK industry can hit net zero in a cost-efficient way that enables growth and jobs.

With net zero a political hot potato and a much bigger focus on business costs, decarbonising heavy emitting industries will be politically contentious and can only be done with a strong focus on digital innovations and new tech.

In this webinar we explain the strategy, hear from a manufacturer on their challenges and look at how the strategy can translate into opportunities for tech firms in getting their solutions deployed in the sectors that need it the most.
