At Autumn Budget 2025, the Government published the Entrepreneurship in the UK Prospectus which emphasises the Government’s commitment to supporting start‑ups and scaling firms through improved access to capital, R&D support, regulatory reform, and procurement changes.

The Government also conducted a Call for Evidence on Tax Support for Entrepreneurs, which closed recently.
