2020 Transformation with Tech Report
What’s inside?
The 2020 Report was created in response to the on-going Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on the UK microbusiness landscape.
In partnership with Be the Business, Lloyds Bank have used a powerful blend of over 200,000 quantitative and qualitative business data points, to provide exclusive insights into how the UK’s smallest businesses are using technology to adapt and survive, and the vital support they need going forward.
