On Alembic Strategy Café’s livecast - Reigniting the Economy I spoke about supporting entrepreneurs leading the digital revolution.

• The pandemic has accelerated e-commerce and the digitisation of many sectors of the economy led by Healthcare and Education. 

• Angel investors understand that building businesses of scale take at least 7-10 years, which is why it is called ‘patient capital’. So ‘don’t sell too early’.

• The UK is well positioned as a global AI leader having invested as much in AI R&D as the rest of Europe. It’s 3rd behind the US and China.

• The workforce of the future will need digital skills. Therefore we need to start with Schools teaching technology and financial literacy.

• The pandemic has mimicked ‘war-time’ urgency forcing companies to refocus on their business models (pivot if necessary) and show leadership qualities. Successful CEO’s have understood the importance of resilience, being a good role model, showing transparency along with exemplary communication skills to ensure the wellbeing of their teams.

Over the last decade Delta2020 has supported the local Schools by offering Work Experience Placements during the Summer months primarily for Year11 Students who have shown an interest in the STEM subjects. 

Due to COVID implications last year, the program was moved online and held virtually.

This offered a new dynamic to the program and enabled it to be extended to students further afield.

Delta2020 is keen to run its signature program again and offer the opportunity to Year 11 students nationwide for one week in July.

(limited availability).

Date and Duration

w/c 5th July 2021 (Mon-Fri 9:30am start, between 5-7hrs p/day).

The program would suit students who have a keen interest in the STEM subjects at School: 

• Science
• Technology
• Engineering
• Maths
