Optimism remains high for Scottish tech sector despite challenges
The outlook for the Scottish tech sector remains positive according to the latest industry report from ScotlandIS, the membership and cluster management organisation for Scotland’s digital technologies industry.
Despite a challenging economic and geopolitical climate, almost three quarters (73%) of firms expressed optimism for the year ahead, a feeling driven by expectations of growth and the promise of new opportunities for the sector. While a slight decline from last year’s 78% optimism, the figure remains high, reflecting an overall positive outlook for the next 12 months.
