Improvements to digital and transport
infrastructure were considered as the key
developments that would have the most
significant and positive impact on businesses
by our survey respondents.
Digital infrastructure has become even
more important to small and medium
sized businesses since March 2020 when
thousands of employees were required to
work remotely. 93 per cent of respondents
feel that it is important for the Government
to prioritise investment in digital
infrastructure.
Businesses are increasingly turning to
digital technology to help support their
development and ensure success.
Improving the availability of a stable digital
connection across the country will be key to
supporting growth of the middle market.
Transportation of people, goods and services
around the UK and beyond, is fundamental
to many businesses. For the middle market,
this is considered as one of the most
important developments and would have an
overwhelmingly positive impact on business
opportunities.
