Rejected petition Protect the growth of the Welsh Tech sector up to and beyond 2020

Wales has the fastest growing digital economy outside London. Growth of the tech scene jumped 9.2% in 2015 and around 3.5% of the total Welsh workforce is involved in IT. Government must restore confidence in our sector through strong policy milestones that the sector can rally around.
