Digitalisation of the Public Sector 2025

Venue: Online Conference

Date: 13 Mar 2025

Synopsis: Digital transformation is essential, but legacy tech, budget constraints, and a lack of skills are key challenges in the public sector. With 58% of councils reporting a digital skills gap in a 2023 Local Government Association survey, how can transformation benefit citizens and prevent government lag?

Details:

The UK tech sector is projected to grow by £41.5 billion by 2025, creating 678,000 jobs. Councils spend £1-2 billion on IT annually, much of it on outdated systems. How can these funds drive real transformation and ensure staff are equipped for new tech?

With initiatives like the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, more must be done to ensure public and business interests are addressed as technologies like AI and cyber security raise concerns. Rapid policy shifts are needed to keep pace with global digital trends.
