Event details

Digital transformation is crucial, but legacy systems, limited budgets, and a skills gap are major obstacles for the public sector. With 58% of councils reporting a digital skills shortage in a 2023 Local Government Association survey, how can we drive transformation that benefits citizens and keeps the government from falling behind?

The UK tech sector is expected to grow by £41.5 billion by 2025, creating 678,000 jobs. Councils spend £1-2 billion annually on IT, much of which supports outdated systems. How can we better allocate these resources to ensure meaningful change and equip workers with the skills needed for new technologies?

While initiatives like the new Department for Science, Innovation and Technology mark progress, more action is needed to address public concerns about emerging technologies like AI and ensure policies keep pace with global trends.
