Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The Swedish technology group EU Supply will this week reveal plans to float on the London Stock Exchange.

The group provides software to public-sector organisations across Europe, including the National Health Service and councils in Camden and Brighton and Hove.

It is hoping to raise £5m on London’s junior AIM market to hire new sales staff ahead of the introduction of new EU rules next year. These will force public bodies to publish all their tender notifications on platforms like those produced by EU Supply.

Although it is headquartered in Sweden, 36 per cent of the company’s sales come from the UK, its largest market.

It made revenues of £1.6m last year and was recently awarded a contract to supply the Norwegian government, worth about £2.8m.

EU Supply is just one of several companies planning to list in London over the next few weeks on both AIM and the main market.

Experts believe this trend will continue well into next year despite continued economic uncertainty.
