Budget garners muted response from IT industry
By Miya Knights,
Intellect's Nazareth told IT PRO: "Although science funding was increased, there was nothing in there about encouraging technology as a subject." And Nick Dusic, director of the Campaign for Science and Engineering added: "The Chancellor highlighted the UK's history of scientific invention as central to the UK's success in the global economy.
"It is critical that tomorrow's innovation white paper puts investing in science and engineering at the heart of the government's new innovation agenda. The UK needs to redouble its efforts to produce highly skilled graduates and cutting-edge research."
