Working with businesses, employees and consumers to drive up UK productivity and competitiveness to deliver prosperity for all.

DESCRIPTION

The DTI drives our ambition of 'prosperity for all' by working to create the best environment for business success in the UK. We help people and companies become more productive by promoting enterprise, innovation and creativity.

We champion UK business at home and abroad. We invest heavily in world-class science and technology. We protect the rights of working people and consumers. And we stand up for fair and open markets in the UK, Europe and the world.

One of our central objectives is to make the most of the UK's science, engineering and technology skills and resources. Key to this is the promotion of standards of international excellence in basic science. We are also dedicated to maximising the contribution of the science and technology fields to the UK's economic development - and the quality of our lives. The DTI is responsible both for UK Science Policy (through the Office of Science and Technology), and for promoting the development and use of technology by industry.
