The new research found two in five of SME business leaders say productivity would increase with investments in AI and other digital technologies

New research shows that the UK economy could benefit from a £79 billion boost in the next 12 months if SMEs could prioritise investment in new technology.

Despite the clear benefits of tech investment, 42% of SMEs are concerned that difficulties onboarding new technologies will impact their business’s ability to grow in future, whilst more than half say that the costs associated with this are concerning. These were both deemed more important than having good local transport links , sufficient office space and access to skilled labour .

According to recent research, the UK came 22nd out of 25 European countries, with London coming last in a list of 10 European cities. Additionally, the UK’s general network speed is also poor in comparison to Europe, ranking 26th out of 31.
