Key Drivers and Hurdles in UK Business Growth Strategies in 2024 and Beyond

The entrepreneurial landscape in the UK is rapidly evolving, with new research revealing key drivers and hurdles in business growth strategies for 2024 and beyond. According to a study conducted by Estonia’s e-Residency program, over half of UK business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs are looking beyond British shores for growth opportunities.

The survey of 1,000 UK business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs highlights a shift towards international markets, with 56% of respondents setting their sights on global expansion. This trend is driven by the growth potential and enhanced flexibility offered in other markets, signaling a pivot in UK entrepreneurship towards a more global outlook.

One of the key findings of the research is the generational divide in global ambition, with 70% of Millennial and Gen Z respondents expressing eagerness to start businesses outside the UK. This is in contrast to only 34% of Baby Boomers who share the same sentiment. Additionally, the study reveals that over half of UK entrepreneurs are using digital platforms to scale their operations, with 90% leveraging AI, blockchain, and cloud computing to enhance operational efficiency.

Despite the push towards international markets and the adoption of advanced technologies, almost half of respondents are still grappling with the complexities of Brexit. However, the study also shows that a significant portion of entrepreneurs are defying economic pressure and gearing up for growth, with 65% of Gen Z and Millennial respondents expressing eagerness to expand their businesses domestically or internationally if they secure new investments.

Overall, the research underscores the need for UK entrepreneurs to embrace new models of collaboration and competition, looking beyond local markets to seize global opportunities. By investing in innovative technologies and fostering adaptability, businesses can thrive in a global economy. The findings of the study provide valuable insights for entrepreneurs navigating the evolving entrepreneurial landscape in the UK and beyond.
