Section 2 : AI Adoption and Buyer Expectations

AI is no longer an isolated initiative or a future-facing concept; it’s becoming embedded across core business functions and daily workflows. As organisations grow more confident in AI’s potential, expectations around performance, scale, and strategy are rising, especially in the mid- market, where adoption is accelerating fastest.

Key Takeaways:

  • AI is King, But Maturing: AI remains the top investment priority, but the focus is shifting from experimentation to embedding AI into core operations, customer experience (CX), and cyber security.
  • Cyber Security, CX and Cloud Remain Foundational: These areas continue to be critical investment zones, with organisations prioritising threat protection, improved customer journeys, and scalable cloud environments.
  • Mid-Market vs. Enterprise: Different Strategies: Mid-market organisations are more agile and willing to experiment with AI, while large enterprises prioritise cost reduction.
  • AI Adoption is Expanding: AI is no longer limited to innovation labs but is being deployed across various business functions to improve performance.
  • Support is Needed: Companies need external support for AI and Cyber Security.

What This Means for UK Businesses
