Join us for a drop-in session to share your insights and contribute to techUK’s policy positions. This will help to shape techUK’s input for the UK Government's 2025 Spending Review.

Open to all members, this session will provide a brief overview of our SR2025 strategy and offer you the opportunity to provide direct feedback.

As a reminder, the Chancellor has launched a multi-year Spending Review that will conclude in June 2025. The Government aims to deliver a mission-driven, technology-enabled, and reform-focused approach to public services through this process.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact Samiah or Mia directly.
