We are delighted to publish the latest insight magazine featuring interviews with leaders across the technology sector. In this issue, we explore a wide range of topics including; the challenges of being a CEO, traits of an effective leader, the importance of being future ready, how transforming a business culture is everything, what needs to be done to attract and retain more women in the deep tech sector, imposter syndrome and balancing career risk versus reward.
The technology sector has proven very robust against the backdrop of the pandemic, current global uncertainty due to the war in Ukraine and the global supply chain challenges. While in recent months there has been a decrease in venture funding, PE transactions and IPO activity, there is still a strong demand for leadership talent and at SH Gillamor Stephens, we approach everything we do with the perspective of helping organisations and individuals achieve their potential.

The Insurance Outlook 2022 aims to give you the insights you need to help you attract and retain the right senior level talent to drive your business strategy this year, as we continue to see the power shift from organisations to people and the competition to attract new talent grows fiercer.
Over the last two years, disruption and change have dominated our industry. This year we analysed the data around 4.6 million insurance professionals globally to identify how the industry is responding and what we can expect to see over the next 12 months.

French-born Corentin Guillo founded his company Bird.i in Glasgow in 2016 with the desire to democratise access to satellite imagery and its potential insights.
The company grew via two investment rounds and was consistently named one of Scotland’s top “startups to watch” before pivoting in 2018 towards providing real-time satellite imagery to the construction and infrastructure industries. Bird.i was a finalist for “Startup of the Year” at the 2018 Scottish Tech Startup Awards.
In this article we sat down with Corentin to discuss the benefits of founding his startup in Scotland, the key milestones in Bird.i’s development, and what the future holds both for his company and the vibrant Scottish space tech sector.
In this latest issue we have focussed on the benefits of founding a space tech start-up in Scotland; how Prestwick Spaceport is quietly positioning itself to lead UK launch ambitions; the steady rise of a Scottish space tech provider; and the future of the Scottish space industry.
There’s huge interest in the space sector, from academics doing research, to governments looking to foster its development, to investors looking for growth, to companies seeking more business opportunity. While Scotland is well positioned to take advantage of this interest, we can’t rest on our laurels.
This article outlines the growth in the sector, why it’s important to focus on the wider benefits it offers, and why the work of organisations like the Scottish Space Leadership Council will continue to be so vital in the years ahead.

What costs are involved? What are the benefits? What are the pitfalls? Here’s Rod’s take on what UK asset management firms can learn from the US experience.
