Of all the messages in the Chancellor’s Autumn Budget, one was particularly clear - we urgently need to address the UK’s digital skills gap. The announcement of a £3.8B investment in training and T-Level courses was welcome news for the tech sector and in the future will undoubtedly go some way to alleviating the crippling skills shortage our industry faces.

Digital disruption has been a blessing for some in the marketing world and a curse for others. The distinction between the two has been how reactive, and willing marketers have been to evolve with the times.

Few have understood how the reverberations from COVID-19 have left markets wide open for major disruption by new entrants.

For most startup founders, you’ll probably be introduced to your first journalists by your investors. Those introductions are worth their weight in gold, but to transfer that relationship you’ll need to have something newsworthy to write about or to spend some time with that person learning what you can bring to the table too.

For any company today, building and maintaining a good corporate culture is critical. In an employee-driven talent economy, culture can be a significant draw to or detractor from your business, and as such accelerate or hinder growth plans.

And when that company is doubling in size year-on-year, it’s even harder still.

As an owner of a digital marketing agency, I largely see the world from the perspective of the digital space. I see everything as being available online, but I am increasingly coming to see this as a perspective driven by a position of privilege.

Last week, Amazon announced that it will no longer accept UK-issued Visa credit cards from January 2022. The reason came down to the high fees that Visa charges for processing credit card transactions. While the change may come as a shock to many, it brought to light an issue that merchants have long been protesting.

There is a huge problem brewing under the surface of the digital world – a lack of skills. The effect of the pandemic on the digital world is becoming more and more apparent within the digital marketing industry. As businesses closed their doors in the real world, they looked instead to opening new doors online.

The potential for online learning to open up a new world of possibilities for learners was dashed the moment the first lecture was uploaded. While it meant that the number of people able to view a lecture increased considerably, it failed to take advantage of any benefit technology could offer to the learning process itself.
