Despite being worth over $1T, having more unicorns than Europe and employing over 2M people, the hard truth of UK tech is the innovation ceiling. We’ve arguably created the most rivalled ecosystem on this side of the Atlantic, but the underutilisation of our resources means there is a real risk of losing that status.

Job hunting can feel like navigating a maze – and is often a full-time job itself. With many organisations conducting yet more rounds of layoffs, more people are seeking their next opportunity.

We have many problems in the sustainability industry. I remember the days when finding data was like going on a scavenger hunt that often resulted in nothing.

It’s become a sexy term, and will always play an important role in the startup ecosystem. Angel investing continues to be a rewarding journey - and to be told ‘you’re such an angel’, has a very specific meaning for me. I will unpack my thesis and approach for any cheque I write. This culminates in founders who balance depth of innovation, degree of impact, and their direct experiences from intersectionality. These 3 ‘i’s make them investible “intersectional incredibles”, and is why I’m launching iiF by i³ investing.

Meta did a great job launching Threads last summer: the teasers, the waitlist, the ‘number’ assigned to your profile signifying when you became part of the community... It was all very exciting.

The government's recent policy reversal around access to funding for women and persons of colour start-ups is good news. But it remains nothing short of shocking that we got there in the first place.

For the UN, the 2020-2030 decade is the decade of ecosystem restoration. To achieve this goal, we need to appreciate the extreme complexity and gigantic diversity of the planet's ecosystems. Forests, the main carbon sink alongside the ocean, are the best example: tropical, temperate, coniferous, humid, dry, mangrove, boreal... Affected by massive deforestation, these areas are on the front line of the climate emergency.
