The period is now open for contributions to the Digital Sector Strategy.
The digital sector has been a large part of the success of this region over many years, and rapidly-evolving technologies are driving innovation, business growth and new jobs in other sectors. Improved digital connectivity is opening up new opportunities and new ways of working for all. The Digital Sector Strategy aims to set the direction and create the conditions for an exciting new phase of growth for this region's technology sector.
CW and Anglia Ruskin University, with funding from CPCA, are collaborating with key industry stakeholders and local business to build an independent and impartial Digital Sector Strategy for the region. This Strategy will define the steps needed to harness the region's present digital strengths and maximise the long-term productivity of the technology sector. Its recommendations will contribute to the Local Industrial Strategy of the CPCA and complement other items of work such as the CPIER and the Science and Innovation Audit.
Please share your views and help build the best conditions for a prosperous digital economy in the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough area.
You are encouraged to share the survey within your network so that the results represent as wide a range of views as possible.
Input from all businesses within Cambridgeshire & Peterborough, no matter the size, sector or town is encouraged.
