British business is changing at a faster pace than ever before. Few industries avoided the belt tightening of the recession, and many are now working hard to ensure the fragile recovery lays solid enough foundations to endure. It’s in this environment that we felt it important to take an accurate temperature check of the IT sector.

The results have been compiled here, along with our own analysis, to highlight what changes the industry expects in the wider business world, and what impact these changes may have on organisations’ ability to do business.
