(NASDAQ: EGHT) as a key driver of transformation.\n\n\nThe latest Tech Titans report by data insights company Tussell and digital trade association techUK highlights vendors helping government bodies unify systems, reduce complexity, and deliver better outcomes. 8x8 stands out for its role in enabling this shift through the 8x8 Platform for CX – the industry's most integrated customer experience platform, combining Contact Center, Unified Communications, and CPaaS in a single solution.\n\n\nAccording to the report, the top 150 suppliers – just 2 percent of the market – captured 84 percent of the UK’s £19.6 billion public sector tech spend, underscoring the growing demand for trusted, scalable platforms like 8x8.\n\n\nPublic Sector Tech Spend Hits Record High - and Set to Continue\n\n\nThe findings, curated from Tussell’s database of government contracts and invoices, show spending surged across central government, healthcare, and national security sectors, while only local government saw a modest decline.
