Dunkirk. The Blitz spirit. Famous examples where people displayed an extraordinary courage and pulled together in a cohesive manner not seen in calmer, safer times. Threat brings humans closer together. Focus becomes sharper, clearer, streamlined and more meaningful – whether the threat turns out to be real or imagined. Without this, we live in a
We have never before had such a wide-ranging understanding of how technology and communications work. Even as part of the Millennial generation, my experience is hugely different from that of people just 10 years younger. And businesses are finding this too – the landscape they find themselves in now differs massively from that of two
When we traded our open plan warehouse in buzzing Brixton for the calmer, quieter surrounds of a zen-like compartmentalised Clapham retreat, we didn’t just change the space we were in – but the way we were working.

These dreams now don’t seem like such a distant reality. As computers become more powerful, clever and sophisticated, the rate of technological growth is rapidly increasing.
It is said that 2016 will be the year for Virtual Reality and with Facebook spending $2bn to acquire the Oculus Rift VR headset, founder Mark Zuckerberg obviously believes it too. Virtual reality is no longer a thing of the future and it isn’t surprising that most business sectors are developing various ways of using
