The Super Bowl is more than just a game—it’s a cultural event, a global spectacle, and most importantly for our audience, a platform for technological innovation and an indication of what investment in sport can achieve.

Some are calling it the 'nutrition revolution’, others the ‘supplement boom’, but, one thing is for certain, start-ups are emerging all over the place, attracting venture capital, and tapping into society’s obsession with leading ever healthier, simpler, lives.

For much of human history, the discovery and development of new health drugs has been a long and frustrating process, involving years, if not decades, of complex research and countless cycles of trial and error. Today paints a very different picture, with artificial intelligence (AI) - that all encompassing buzzword - completely transforming the industry and taking humanity to the brink of eradicating diseases that have existed for millenia.

Musk declared via X, formerly Twitter, which he purchased back in 2022, that he plans to take anyone who wants to go to Mars to the red planet in the next few years. The caveat to his offer was, essentially, that this was only possible if Trump returned to the Oval Office in January. He said, “If the mean-lady candidate wins, no space for you!” He further claimed that “the bureaucracy currently choking America to death is guaranteed to grow under a Democratic Party administration” thus destroyin...

Sport is one of life’s great joys. Whether you are watching from home, in the stadium or playing it yourself, sport continues to capture our hearts and minds. It is a love of mine and billions of others - no wonder it is catching the eyes of investors almost everywhere.

AI is already being used on a wide scale throughout the legal profession, and there is little doubt its impact will grow with additional use cases emerging daily.

Tools like these are empowering lawyers to bypass traditionally time-consuming processes, enabling them to focus on more strategic, higher-level work for clients. AI’s promise to enhance the efficiency and productivity of firms globally is...

Deep-tech is becoming a critical force and is rapidly emerging as an asset class in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), driven by the region's need to address pressing challenges and diversify its economic structure. With its arid climate, young population, and dependency on oil, MENA faces unique socio-economic and environmental pressures that demand innovative solutions. As governments and private investors recognise these limitations and other societal threats at bay, there is a major pivot...

It is just over a week since the collapse of SVB sent shock waves across the banking world, with many, notably Larry Fink of BlackRock, anticipating more banks to follow. This draws obvious parallels to the 2008 crash, in particular the outlook for challenger banks.

Since mid-summer, debates surrounding what the new conservative leader and Prime Minister would do to tackle the cost of living crisis have been widespread. Now that we know it is Liz Truss, the country’s attention is very much fixed on her to deliver a plan.

It was this time last year that we were in the midst of an Extinction Rebellion movement that took London by storm. An ominous climate report, giving us just "12 years to save the planet", shook the foundations of a seemingly indifferent society. Many were calling it a revolution. The tides beginning to turn for Climate Change action?

Demonstrate how the pursuit and use of data in today’s socio-political climate showcases the continuing relevance of Demeritt’s (1996:485) assertion that “claims to knowledge are claims to power”.

The nature of the relationship between the outward-bound United Kingdom and the European Union following Brexit is still very uncertain. However, this December 2020 election really does feel like the conclusion to a very long prelude to Britain's exit of the European Union.

Earlier this month, I attended MAD//Fest, the UK’s largest destination marketing festival in Shoreditch, London, and there were plenty of learnings for marketers and comms professionals in financial services.

From writing her first words of the series in a cafe on George IV Bridge to hosting the Quidditch Premier League, J.k Rowling's Harry Potter books have deep routes in Scotland, in Edinburgh specifically. Her imagination has inspired a city wide passion for all things magic.

Across the internet and on various social networking sites the opportunity to become economically independent by learning to trade is being advertised to millions of people. Of the many who are tempted by the promises of such schemes, at least 10% fall victim to a fastidiously well-planned marketing campaign and end up spending thousands of pounds in the hope of becoming hungry, driven and successful ‘fat cats’ in the making (Goodley, S.2012).

"If you have an idea, just go with it. You have no idea who or how many people you might be helping."

Manuel Pellegrini’s first season as West Ham manager will not go down in history as anything particularly special. The Hammers managed a 10thplace finish in 18/19, one better than they went the season before. After a very poor start to the campaign (losing four out of four of their openingfixtures) Pellegrini’s side looked down and out.

West Ham United have come a long way since their the most recent relegation following the 2010/11 premier league season. The West Ham we see today would seem barely recognisable to the club that percolated into the countries second tier all those years ago. To call it a makeover would be an understatement.

A closer look at the (in)falliablity of the Premier League's 'top six'.
