Labour win: BrightHR election reaction

Manchester, England - Alan Price, CEO at BrightHR, the UK’s leading provider of HR and health & safety software, says, “After 14 years of Conservative Government, Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party has stormed to victory after consistently leading in the polls.

“We welcome the Labour Party’s commitment to invest in digitalisation and empower the domestic tech sector, including plans to create a Regulatory Innovation Office to update regulation, reforms to accommodate greater investment into data centres, and new ten-year R&D budgets to create longer-term tech partnerships and boost innovation.

“The value of the technology sector in the UK is set to grow exponentially over the next few years, and strategic investment will be critical to ensure that tech businesses can continue to thrive against a backdrop of global economic uncertainty. Labour has emphasised its support for our sector, and we look forward to seeing how these changes will be implemented in the coming weeks and months to maximise the incredible economic potential of tech enterprises in the UK.”
