New blog from the BBC on the socio-economic impact of digital inclusion finds that achieving full digital inclusion could generate as much as: 💷 £21.1–£30.8 billion in annual Gross Value Added (GVA) from increased productivity and employment. 💷 £4.9–£9.4 billion in net gains to the Exchequer through higher tax revenues and reduced welfare spending. 💷 £26.6–31.3 billion in non-market wellbeing benefits, including improved life satisfaction and access to services. Additional benefits include: 💷 Up to £2.8 billion in annual NHS savings from virtual GP appointments. 💷 Up to £848 million in user savings from digital government services. Blog author Helen Burrows says: "Improving digital connectivity and inclusion could unlock economic growth and underpins delivery of a number of the Governments priorities — including those outlined in the recently published 10-year plan for the NHS, DSIT’s Digital Inclusion Action Plan, DWP’s Get Britain Working programme, and HM Treasury Financial Inclusion Committee." https://lnkd.in/ecYkkgPn
