Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

“Extra! Extra! Read all about it!” You might recognise this cry from old time movies when newspaper hawkers broadcast breaking news along busy streets.

Strength in numbers and keeping in touch ?

A lot has certainly changed since our March newsletter! On a positive note, we’ve seen ‘strength in numbers’ as people have come together to meet collective challenges. We’ve also witnessed a new respect for the ‘strength in numbers’ as the eyes of the world have turned towards data and analytics for answers and direction. As […]
