The UK tech sector saw the steepest expansion of business activity for almost a decade during the last quarter of 2013, according to the latest KPMG/Markit Tech Monitor UK report. In December, the index measuring UK tech sector business activity posted above the 50 no-change threshold for the sixteenth month with a healthy score of 61. The results also showed 44 per cent of UK tech firms plan to hire more staff this year, while seven per cent expect cuts.
