Come along as we dive into Save the Children's incredible digital transformation journey with Steven Silverman, their Co-Director of Digital, Data & Technology. They tackled the tricky balance every charity knows too well, investing in operational infrastructure versus directing funds straight to their mission. 

Steven walks us through their step-by-step migration from physical infrastructure to the cloud, sharing how they overcame challenges, boosted security, and unlocked major efficiencies.

What does it actually take to build a workplace where everyone can thrive, regardless of ability?

In this episode, we sit down with Robin Spinks, Head of Inclusive Design at RNIB, who brings 25 years of experience helping organisations close the accessibility gap. From the rise of Microsoft Copilot's voice features to smart glasses replacing smartphones, Robin unpacks how AI is reshaping what's possible for blind and partially sighted people - and everyone else.

We dig into the real barriers people still face, why culture matters as much as technology, and what leaders can do right now to build more inclusive teams.

Whether you're a CIO, HR lead, or just someone who believes good design should work for everybody, this one's worth your time!

Senior leaders are being told ‘we need to do AI’ to keep up with the buzz and potential of new AI capabilities.

But, IT leaders are falling into two camps: those that dive in headfirst, and those that get caught in the utopian vision, unable to make progress.

In this episode, we’ll tackle both camps, providing clear actionable priorities to get started immediately, whilst also making sure you’re not ‘just doing AI’ for the buzz of it all. Start making progress today and hear from industry experts on how they’re seeing immediate impact in their AI adoption.
