The government has an opportunity to stimulate billions in economic growth by supporting small businesses in upgrading their technology and IT systems, according to Sage Group.
While tax incentives are currently available for investments in factories and equipment, they don’t cover critical areas like new software.
Sage, a leading provider of accountancy software, is advocating for tax breaks to include technology investments.
The company highlights that the UK is at risk of falling behind in leveraging innovative artificial intelligence to enhance business operations.
Aaron Harris, Sage’s chief technology officer, wrote for The Mail on Sunday, emphasizing that failing to support tech investments could stifle growth and hinder the UK’s goal of becoming a science and technology powerhouse.
Potential Economic Impact
Sage’s research reveals that if the accountancy sector adopts AI over the next three years, it could add £2 billion to GDP and generate 19,000 new jobs.
Harris argues that the government needs to instill greater confidence in businesses to invest in their future growth.
