Overview

This third and final report in Aurora Live’s 2025 IT Strategy survey series explores how senior decision-makers across Europe’s leading companies prepare their IT organizations for the future. The goal is to understand how well-equipped IT teams are regarding skills, structure, and strategy to sustain impact in the face of rapid change. Drawing on insights from 189 respondents across 11 countries, we examine the foundations of a future-ready IT operating model. 

We examine the current size of IT teams, how well they meet organizational needs, and where hiring challenges lie. We also look at the skills companies need now — and those they expect to prioritize in the next 12–24 months. We investigate how companies use outsourcing to scale IT capabilities, what functions are most commonly externalized, and the biggest pain points in vendor management. Here, we also explore how organizations manage software licenses and the extent to which open-source tools are being considered. 

Finally, we explore how companies are budgeting for growth and their top IT priorities for the year ahead.
