On 12th October, TechMarketView’s Chief Analyst, Georgina O’Toole, and some of the TechMarketView team, including our Managing Director, Tola Sargeant, will be taking part, along with their families, in the RBC Race for the Kids – a 5k fun run (or jog, or walk, or wheel!) - for the seriously ill children at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).
Some of you will already be aware that Georgina’s younger son (pictured) has been under the care of the Orthopaedic Department at Great Ormond Street Hospital for much of his life… indeed coinciding with Georgina’s time with TechMarketView.
Most recently the hospital supported Thomas and the rest of the O’Toole family through the difficult decision to have Thomas’ leg amputated. Without the whole-child and whole-family care of this wonderful hospital, the journey could have been so much harder.
Georgina has always spoken highly of the hospital for the amazing care it gives, thanks to the fantastic staff and facilities. Now TechMarketView is looking to raise some money to support the charity and make a difference to other children being treated there.
We have set up a JustGiving page for donations – TechMarketView for GOSH - so please consider digging as deep as you can to support this very worthy cause.

Very many thanks to all our clients and guests who joined us at our annual Evening with TechMarketView last night at the Royal Institute of British Architects. It was a fantastic success with one of the biggest turnouts we’ve had since we held our first event seven years ago.
We must give a very special thank you to our sponsors Intersystems, Datto, Aqilla and Kimble, whose support was instrumental in making the TMV Evening one of the ‘must attend’ events for executives in the UK tech industry, and of course ‘The Two Tina’s’ at tx2events who made it all happen.
We were also delighted to give a platform to Tara Leathers, Deputy CEO at The Prince’s Trust, which as many of you know is a cause to which TechMarketView is deeply committed. If you would like to find out more about the Trust’s good works, just drop a line to Busdev@princes-trust.org.uk.
Many thanks also go to Miguel Gamiño, Executive VP for Global Cities at Mastercard, who was interviewed on stage by TechMarketView’s Principal Analyst, Martin Courtney.
The theme of the event (and indeed TechMarketView’s theme for 2019) was The Year of the Relationship. Our Chief Analyst, Georgina O’Toole, and Chief Research Officer, Kate Hanaghan, brought the theme to life with their urgent call to action to tech suppliers to cultivate a wide ecosystem of relationships both within and beyond organisational boundaries if they are to succeed in today’s marketplace.
Georgina also used the occasion to launch TechMarketView’s theme for 2020, Digital Chaos, emphasising the need to create ‘islands of stability’ before contemplating a move to truly disruptive digital transformation. You’ll be hearing much more about Digital Chaos soon.
TechMarketView Managing Partner Anthony Miller closed the formal proceedings as only he can!
We’ll be sending the presentation slides to all attendees next week, and they will also be available for download by TechMarketView Subscription Service clients in due course.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) was officially launched in 2006 and started targeting public sector opportunities in earnest about ten years ago. The public sector now represents an important part of the business, with over 5,000 government organisations and 10,000 academic institutions worldwide using its technology.
Establishing its first London region in 2016 provided a significant boost to AWS’ public sector ambitions in the UK, helping it address concerns about data sovereignty and privacy. Its presence has grown substantially in recent years and TechMarketView estimates, based on 2018 revenue, AWS is now one of the top 20 public sector software and IT services suppliers to the UK public sector.
In this paper we draw on information presented at the AWS Summit in London in May 2019 and the two-day AWS Public Sector Summit in Washington DC, which took place in June 2019, to review the progress AWS has made, the reasons for its success and the importance of partnerships in that story. We look at G-Cloud sales, its approach to hybrid and multi-cloud, the role of AI and machine learning in its proposition, and the importance of skills enablement.

In case you missed it - the Enterprise Software Market Trends & Forecasts 2019-2022 report is available for download. The is our latest analysis of the drivers and trends shaping the Enterprise Software market.
Enterprise Software is a critical enabler for organisations looking to digitally transform their businesses. And there’s no shortage of software, delivery models and suppliers to help bring digital strategies to fruition. So why is the UK enterprise software sector bumping along with low single digit growth?
It’s clear organisations recognise the need to invest in software to drive business change but are held back by the practicalities of how to implement and how to overcome the skills deficit. Market growth is also hampered by lessons from early ventures into software-enabled digital and questions around the fitness of ‘version 1.0’ digital platforms and tools. There is also the ‘minor’ issue of bringing order to the digital chaos of those early digital projects. Add in the inexorable swing to SaaS and these are some of the factors acting as a brake on the market.
But there are market accelerators too. Organisations’ recognition of the value of (digital) data driven business is rising so the consideration is no longer ‘why’ but ‘how’, which brings the intricacies of change management and mastering interdependent relationships to the fore. And as software becomes ever more integral to areas like automation, cyber security and areas of ‘software-defined’ functionality, revenue is shifting from these sectors into software, opening up new opportunities for savvy suppliers to outperform the enterprise software market.
If you are interested in the Enterprise Software Market Trends & Forecasts 2019-2022 report but are not a TechMarketView or ESASViews subscriber, Deb Seth will be happy to help.

It was another tumultuous day in Westminster, but the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sajid Javid delivered few surprises as he set out the Government’s spending plans for 2020-2021. All the main announcements, such as extra money for the NHS, police, justice and schools had been announced or ‘leaked’ over the last month.
The announcements under the banner of ‘turning the page on austerity and delivering on the public’s priorities’, were widely seen as building support for a forthcoming General Election. Boris Johnson challenged Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to back an October 15 general election, but this was not supported by MPs last night. The Government lifted its filibuster attempt in the House of Lords in the early hours of the morning after laying over 100 amendments. There is now a commitment that the withdrawal bill will pass by 5pm on Friday and return to the Commons for further consideration on Monday. It remains to be seen if this will mean a mid-October General Election, but it’s inevitable that we will be returning to the polling station in the near future.
Overall from 2019-20 to 2020-21, day-to-day departmental spending is set to grow at 4.1% in real terms, the fastest growth in 15 years. The plans see every government department having its budget for day-to-day spending increased at least in line with inflation. However, with the exception of the Department of Health and Social Care, many departments will remain substantially below the level of funding received in 2010.
Read our full UKHotViewsExtra article Spending Review 2019: turning the page on austerity? published today for details of the plan and our view on its implications for the different areas of the public sector.

The Application Services Market Trends & Forecasts 2019 report is hot off the virtual press and ready to download HERE.
Buoyed by strong demand for all things digital and further supported by a few megadeals in the operations and support arena, the UK Application Services (AS) market grew more strongly than expected, increasing by 3.5% in 2018. This uptick in activity is not, however, a harbinger of better times ahead.
The UK AS market continues to be shaped by the interaction of a complex set of countervailing forces which will limit headline growth to the low single digits. These dynamics will be with us for some time to come as the market transitions from simple to complex digital transformation.
This is, however, a rapidly changing market. As the demand for digital driven services matures so it accounts for an ever-increasing proportion of AS expenditure. This presents a significant growth opportunity for those suppliers that can align themselves with it.
AS is an arena where the battle for talent continues to intensify, acquisition-driven diversification is accelerating and the core delivery model is being radically transformed. Collaboration, trust and intimacy have become the watchwords for every interaction. For both individuals and organisations, the abilities to adapt rapidly to this new reality will determine greatly their future prosperities.
The report contains our latest market size and forecast data along with an analysis of the trends shaping the largest horizontal segment of the UK IT services market. It also looks at the “how” of adapting to and succeeding in this dynamic, evolving environment.
Application Services Market Trends & Forecasts 2019 is available to TechMarketView subscribers who take the ESASViews research stream. If you don’t have a subscription and would like details please contact Deborah Seth.
