Like or loathe it - everyone’s digital transformation plans got put into warp speed in 2020 and it isn’t slowing down anytime soon. Time will tell what impact a life lived online like this is having on our identity and concentration spans. In this episode we're interested in the impact on the smaller tech and digital businesses in the UK, and whether demand hit the roof or whether the technological need has actually been very specific, benefiting just a few strands of the sector. Our special guests are: Declan Cassidy, Chief Executive of Into Games Tim Robinson, Chief Operating Officer of Tech East Ben Collier, Co-founder of Ocasta Antonia Forster, XR Specialist at Unity Technologies Alex Holliman, Managing Director of Climbing Trees. Between them, these generous and curious folk bring experience from the games industry, tech business networks, mobile software development, virtual and augmented reality design and digital and search marketing. They all answered the same questions - but with personal and heartfelt reflections spanning the period from April 2020 through to January 2021. --- Useful links: https://intogames.org/ https://techeast.com/ https://unity.com/ https://antoniaforster.com/ https://ocasta.com/ https://www.climbingtrees.com/ --- For more information on how you can get involved with The Possibility Club – an inclusive community of professionals working out what’s next, have a look here > www.thepossibilityclub.org You can also receive Finding Chances, a free weekly letter from Richard Freeman, looking behind-the-scenes at business, culture, community and education by signing-up at www.findingchances.substack.com/ We’d love to know what you think of this podcast.
