latest REPORT: WHAT'S the new ambition for uk entrepreneurs?
Entrepreneurs are the backbone of the UK economy, driving innovation, job creation, and economic growth. However, British entrepreneurs face significant challenges in accessing capital, attracting and retaining top talent, and navigating a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
This report seeks to provide an insight into the landscape entrepreneurs face today and to shine a light on what they need to succeed. Alongside the leaders who joined us across the country, we have spoken to a series of experts who help to frame the challenges and opportunities ahead.
HEADLINE FINDINGS
a culture of risk taking is essential for scale
UK investors must match entrepreneurial ambition
The UK investment landscape is perceived as overly-cautious, making it difficult for entrepreneurs to secure funding at key growth stages.
THE WORLD IS CHANGING, HOW WE IDENTIFY SKILLS AND TALENT MUST CHANGE WITH IT
Education should shift towards potential over credentials
The education system needs to shift towards enterprise and soft skills development, ensuring businesses recognise potential rather than relying on qualification-based hiring.
ENSURING TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS BENEFITS ALL BUSINESSES
AI presents risk and opportunity
While automation and AI are disrupting the workforce, they also offer significant potential for business efficiency and scalability – providing investment is targeted at the right business applications.
