The Government’s Science and Technology Framework recognises that investment in Science and Technology is vital for economic growth, and sets out ten strands of activity that will help create new opportunities. The UK has a firm plan for driving growth, including by taking steps on critical technologies and sectors, with commitments to spend: £650 million on Life Sciences; up to £1 billion of government investment for the UK’s Semiconductors sector; and £2.5 billion in funding quantum technologies.
