In the past decade, electric vehicles have gone from feeling like a distant concept to topping the UK vehicle sales charts. A potent combination of progressive and proactive attitudes towards climate action and improving air quality, and then the impending 2030 ban on petrol and diesel vehicles, means that addressing the pitfalls of our current EV infrastructure has never been more pressing.

In the 2021 movie, Don’t look up, produced and distributed by Netflix, we see our capacity to be indifferent to what matters. In the case of the movie, this is centred around society’s actions and reactions to climate change and pushes us to open our eyes to reality. But the allegory can also work in business; ignoring your technical debt might just cost you your company.

Back in 2017, the future of the fintech sector and its potential felt truly limitless. Bold claims were bandied about including the theory that the movement would soon supersede the traditional banking sector in terms of popularity. Nowadays, things don’t look as cut and dry. Personally, I’m still a supporter of the fintech sector and feel that there is still vast potential for it to create real change for businesses and consumers, but I’ll also admit that a lot of those early proclamations have now been shown to be quite wide of the mark.
