It was fantastic to see so many UK TMT colleagues this week at our quarterly TMT community event and spend some quality time again with EY alum, and now Director of Propositions and GTM for Sky Broadband and Mobile, Aman Bhatti 🌟 We kicked off with an insightful session from Douglas McCabe, CEO at Enders Analysis, who shared an in-depth update on macroeconomics and the state of the TMT industry. We then discussed the main insights arising from our latest Digital Home Study, with a particular focus on the UK market and diving into the attitudes and behaviours from 2,500 consumers, including: -Reliable connectivity as the constant "table stakes" of the Telco brand promise -The potential winners and losers from tightening spend appetite -The evolution of the bundle into security, smart home and props that were hitherto subscale or afterthoughts -The timing of AI-led customer service finally leapfrogging human voice interactions in customer preferences ...and much more! You can explore more next week on our UK Digital Home webcast, 27 November 3:45-4:30pm GMT. Join us by registering here: https://lnkd.in/gwK373-9.

This year, Capgemini research revealed that on a global scale, 61% of business leaders recognise that a lack of sustainable practices and processes = a long-term existential risk for their companies. This understanding is a great starting point, however, we also see very often that while many businesses want to begin addressing this issue, the starting point can be unclear. 👓 Working with organisations at all points in their sustainability journey - whether a business is wanting to level up or they're taking its first explorative steps - at ACT we're super passionate about the process of aligning business strategy to relevant, meaningful sustainability goals. If you're keen to start thinking about what this might mean for your organisation, no matter its size or maturity, there's still time to register for our CEO Serena Pacifico's insights, in conversation with fellow sustainability expert Lara Martini! What we'll cover in the event this week: - How sustainability can strengthen your business strategy 💪🏼 - Navigating compliance and avoiding common pitfalls like greenwashing ✅ - The importance of clear communication in building trust with stakeholders 💬 - Insights into how sustainability can drive employee engagement and foster a purpose-driven culture 🙌🏼 Register here for the event on 14 November, 12.30 pm-1.30 pm UK time: https://lnkd.in/gWEaXDmR #sustainablebusinesstransformation #sustainability #ESG

A superb succinct article from an ex Colleague that really incentivizes the Health industry to actively learn from experiences delivered by other industries - travel & tourism, retail, quantum computing amongst a few. Digital & AI tech should never be ‘something else’ or ‘someone else’s problem’. It should be and is something that is part of delivering health & care. #thedifference #augmentinghumanintelligence #unlockingopportunities

A really enjoyable morning at the Financial Times AI Forum joining up with the FT’s Artificial Intelligence Editor, Madhumita Murgia, and my PwC UK colleague, Guy Farrer Fisher.

It’s a really practical and engaging format so worth keeping an eye out for future editions: https://lnkd.in/enFyW_Fj #GenAI #Cloud #Data #AI #ResponsibleAI

Currently, 8.5 million adults in the UK still lack basic digital skills, putting them at risk of missing out on the educational, social and economic opportunities offered by #AI. Over the next three years, our Regenerative AI initiative will bring community partners and organisations together with volunteers from Accenture to help over a million people build their AI skills, through a series of programmes that will enable them to access devices, data and AI literacy courses. Huge thanks to the teams at Tech She Can, Stay Nimble, FutureLearn and Good Things Foundation for their involvement in this initiative and their commitment to closing the digital divide. Find out more about Gen AI, and Regenerative AI, here: https://accntu.re/3UKNd6X [Asset description: Video begins on a dark background, with text reading 'Did you know?'.

At PwC UK, our recent CEO survey revealed that 75% of UK organisations are actively planning or delivering a transformation project focused on sustainability. With pressure from customers and stakeholders alike, #PrivateBusinesses can unlock numerous benefits from embracing net zero transformation, and in his blog post, Chris Temple talks about these benefits, alongside the changing regulations and increasing market pressures that businesses must contend with.
