A recent report by Fujitsu has found that more than 50per cent of Londoners believe that they have the necessary skills to take full advantage of new technology. The report, entitled Transforming Britain, also revealed that Londoners are the most positive about technology in the UK. Others, on the other hand, are quite skeptical. In Wales, for example, only 4 in 10 feel positive about the changes taking place in the country.
Rupal Karia, Head of Public and Private Sector at Fujitsu UK & Ireland, said: “It is vital technology lives up to its promise to positively impact the entire country. To ensure the UK remains at the heart of digital transformation, companies need to take responsibility for educating people. It’s not enough to simply innovate and send a product out, businesses need to take responsibility for the impact it has and work harder to educate the nation on the benefits these changes can bring in the long run,”
“This must be a wake-up call for companies across public and private sector. As the pace of change continues to increase, technology providers need to do more to ensure the public will continue to embrace new technologies at the same rate. We cannot afford a UK where only the digitally savvy can thrive, technology needs to be a uniting force of innovation.”
