Procurement Week 2026 stands as the definitive forum for understanding the evolving landscape of public sector technology acquisition in the United Kingdom. Following the full implementation of the Procurement Act 2023, this event provides a vital pulse check on how new commercial models are influencing the way the government buys and delivers digital services. The conference brings together a diverse ecosystem of central government departments, local authorities, and technology suppliers to examine the intersection of efficiency, transparency, and innovation. The 2026 edition focuses heavily on the "SME Playbook" and the practicalities of the new NHS England procurement frameworks. With the government’s renewed focus on "Smarter State" initiatives, the sessions are designed to help suppliers—particularly small and medium-sized enterprises—navigate the complexities of public tenders. The agenda includes dedicated workshops on social value scoring, cybersecurity compliance in bids, and the ethical procurement of Artificial Intelligence. Experts will provide a deep dive into how AI is being integrated into the decision-making processes of procurement officers, and what this means for the transparency of future contracts. Across two days, attendees will hear from the Government Commercial Function and lead procurement officers from major departments like the MoD and DWP. These sessions aren't just theoretical; they include "Meet the Buyer" roundtables where industry can directly influence future requirements. The event also highlights the role of procurement in driving the Net Zero agenda, discussing how supply chain sustainability is becoming a non-negotiable metric for winning public work. For any organization looking to scale their public sector presence or for civil servants looking to modernize their buying strategies, techUK's Procurement Week is the essential industry milestone of the year. It offers a rare opportunity to sit at the same table as the architects of the UK's digital public infrastructure.

The techUK Tech and Nature Summit 2026 is a premier gathering designed to bridge the gap between cutting-edge technological innovation and environmental stewardship. As the UK intensifies its commitment to biodiversity and "nature-positive" economic growth, this summit serves as a critical junction for policymakers, technology leaders, and environmental scientists. The event delves deep into how emerging technologies—ranging from satellite remote sensing and AI-driven ecological modeling to IoT-enabled soil monitoring—can be deployed to restore natural systems and meet the UK’s ambitious nature goals. The summit is structured around three core pillars: Policy, Finance, and Innovation. Attendees will engage in high-level discussions regarding the "Nature as a UK Policy Objective," exploring how the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) and the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) are aligning to create a regulatory environment that fosters green tech. A significant portion of the day is dedicated to the "Financing the Nature-Positive Economy" segment, which addresses the growing demand from investors for transparent, data-backed biodiversity metrics. A unique feature of this year’s summit is the Nature and Biodiversity Showcase. Here, selected techUK members and startups will deliver rapid-fire, 10-minute demonstrations of real-world solutions currently in use for conservation and restoration. This provides a practical lens through which attendees can see the immediate impact of tech on the ground. The afternoon sessions focus on the ethics of innovation, specifically how to ensure that the development of hardware and software does not inadvertently harm the very ecosystems it seeks to protect. By fostering a collaborative atmosphere, techUK aims to catalyze partnerships that will define the UK’s leadership in the global "Tech for Nature" movement. Whether you are looking to understand the latest compliance requirements or seeking investment in the sustainability sector, this summit offers the essential insights needed to navigate the intersection of tech and the natural world.

Now in its 11th year, Building the Smarter State is techUK’s flagship public sector conference. It serves as the definitive platform where the UK’s digital technology industry meets with public sector leaders to shape the future of government services. In 2026, the conference arrives at a critical juncture for the UK's "Growth Agenda," focusing on how digital, data, and technology can drive productivity, economic stability, and world-class citizen outcomes. The 2026 edition centers on the theme of "Precision and Partnership." As the UK navigates a complex fiscal environment, the "Smarter State" is no longer just an aspirational concept—it is a necessity. The event explores how the public sector can move beyond legacy systems toward a "Cloud First" and "Data Driven" architecture. A major focus this year is the integration of Generative AI and Frontier Compute within central and local government, moving from experimental pilots to scalable, ethical deployments that provide real value to the taxpayer. Attendees will engage in high-level keynotes from Government Ministers and the Central Digital and Data Office (CDDO), participate in deep-dive breakout sessions on procurement reform under the Procurement Act 2023, and network with over 500 senior delegates. The event also hosts the Transformation in Public Sector Awards, celebrating the most innovative digital projects across the UK. Whether you are a large strategic supplier or a high-growth SME, this conference provides the insights needed to navigate the £20bn+ UK public sector tech market.
