Today's realities are striking in their unpredictability. No sooner have people recovered from the coronavirus pandemic than a full-scale Russian attack occurs in Ukraine, and the entire civilised world is involved in the fight against terrorism.

Many entrepreneurs look to funding programmes and grant-making institutions to raise capital for their businesses. Organisations in the cultural sector in particular often seek financial support from private philanthropy and public organisations such as Arts Council England (ACE), Heritage Lottery Fund and the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. But with the current downturn in the economy and increasingly stretched state funding, businesses across the creative industries are now seeking alternative financial models to ensure long-term sustainability.

There I was, as a boy, my eyes riveted to the television my mind expanding by the second, and my imagination tingling, as music began over a starfield screen and William Shatner voiced those famous opening words, “Space, the final frontier…” So begins the introductory monologue to Star Trek, the original series, and so too did my obsession with the opportunity and possibility of humanity expanding beyond earth into space.

Remote working has become the norm, with many jobs advertising this as a benefit. However, what about the benefits of working from the office? While the flexibility of working from home can be attractive to your employees from the outset, it can often have pitfalls further in. From the lack of socialising to simply struggling with online tech support, there are many reasons your employees might actually prefer and benefit from working in the office.

Like many industries, crypto - and by implication blockchain technology - were touted to revolutionise gaming. Whilst this disruptive potential has proved false for many areas of business, the coalescence of gaming and crypto is showing itself to be stronger than most.

With the rise of hybrid working post-pandemic, many employees are now enjoying the flexibility of a part office, part home set-up. Yet, despite the benefits of such an arrangement, it would be foolish to write off the importance of the office in the future.

In November 2021, 60% of the FTSE100 had pledged to eliminate their contribution to carbon emissions by 2050. This figure has since increased to over 80%. But while this presents itself as a positive trend, it is important for businesses to realise that the methods used achieve those targets have a seismic impact on how much change is actually implemented.

Electric cars are getting smaller – a lot smaller. Although the majority of U.S. cars now sold (namely SUVs and pickups) are reportedly the same size as WW2 tanks, a legion of light, sustainable vehicle manufacturers are helping accelerate the great downsize.

It’s fair to say that AI gets a bad rep. It’s a powerful tool: and when used incorrectly or irresponsibly, can have far-reaching negative consequences. In the last few months alone, tech behemoths Microsoft and Meta have retracted AI models following legitimate safety and inaccuracy fears. But what if instead of simply retracting models because they are unsafe, these companies cleaned up their act and created ethical AI models from the get-go that could be used more safely?
