UK Government's AI and Digital Funding Streams – Opportunities for Local Authorities and Public Sector Organisations

Opportunities for Local Authorities and Public Sector Organisations

The UK Government, through the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), has launched four new funding streams to accelerate AI and digital transformation in the public sector. These funding streams are designed to test, scale, and embed innovative digital solutions that improve service delivery and operational efficiency.

Key Funding Opportunities

The new funding streams present significant opportunities for local authorities, public sector organisations, and technology partners:

• Small Scale Pilots – Funding for testing emerging technologies in real-world settings before full-scale adoption.

  
  

• Live Services – Support for scaling successful pilots into fully operational public sector digital services.

  
  

• Government Digital Service (GDS) Initiatives – Investment in cross-government digital projects aimed at improving public services.

  
  

• Departmental Digital Projects – Direct funding to government departments to develop and implement bespoke digital transformation initiatives.
