Just attended a JobAdder seminar exploring the AI tools now available within their platform. Walking away with plenty to think about! One of my key takeaways; when thinking about AI strategy in recruitment (which is still so much about people): understanding. ✅ Understanding which tasks can be automated to free up time. ✅ Understanding where the human approach remains essential for building relationships and making decisions. AI is about enabling better processes and smarter workflows. Excited to see how these tools evolve and keen to get stuck in! Thank you to everyone who presented, it was a really valuable session. #Recruitment #AI #JobAdder #FutureOfWork

Did you know that before Jaws came out, there wasn't a widespread fear of sharks? It wasn't until Spielberg popularised the idea of the Great White Killer Shark that anyone apart from seafarers had any fear about them - which far outweighed the actual impact of Shark attacks. There tend to be between 4 -12 fatalities from Shark attacks a year. Things more likely to kill you than a shark include: A Champagne Cork; Jet Ski's; Lawnmowers and Ladders. All of which is to say, I'm really looking forward to chairing this panel Tech Show London next Thursday on whether AI is having its Jaws moment. While there are genuine concerns around AI, it's getting harder and harder to see the signal from the noise. I'll be chatting with Serena Haththotuwa, Archie Cobb and Mark Rodseth about whether 🤖 =🦈 ?

Progress is achieved when opportunities are created, support is extended, and recognition is given so that everyone has the chance to grow and succeed. As part of our “Give to Gain” campaign for International Women’s Day 2026, we spoke with some of the young women at Eunisell about their career journeys, how they navigate the balance between professional and personal responsibilities, and the experiences that continue to shape their development. Their stories highlight resilience, ambition, and the importance of fostering environments where women are empowered to thrive. In line with this year’s theme — “Rights. Justice. Action. For ALL Women and Girls.” — we remain committed to supporting women in the workplace and championing a future where opportunities are truly inclusive. Happy International Women’s Day. #GiveToGain #IWD2026 #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInEnergy #Eunisell

Our brilliant partner at Indeed, Clíona Hayes Hayes, recently sat down with The Drum for an insightful interview discussing the intricacies of marketing on a global scale, why she thinks taking risks is key to successful work – and how Indeed's latest campaign from #72LA and #72AMS excels on both fronts. 🎙️ "We’re calling out the absurdities in hiring, like lack of salary transparency, arbitrary requirements, nepotism and mismatched expectations...At its core, our campaign emphasizes substance over superficiality, challenging biases that prioritize pedigree and privilege over real skills and value."

For UK founders and business leaders thinking about U.S. expansion, this is a conversation worth joining. In collaboration with GBx, Ellis Porter Partners Arvinder Ubhi and Marc Topoleski are pleased to present a virtual "Ask Me Anything" session on U.S. immigration and work visas. We’re also grateful to Mark Charkin for opening registration to non-GBx members. U.S. expansion often comes with some uncertainty, particularly around immigration. The rules are complex, timelines shift, and outcomes are rarely black and white. This session is designed to help founders and leaders better understand that uncertainty, ask the right questions, and make informed decisions with clearer expectations. The discussion will focus on: • Visa options most commonly used by UK founders and senior leaders • What is predictable, what is variable, and where discretion plays a role in today’s U.S. immigration landscape • Timelines, trade-offs, and common pitfalls to navigate when planning U.S. expansion • Live Q&A to explore real scenarios and practical considerations EVENT DETAILS: 10 February | 5:00 pm GMT / 12:00 pm EST / 9:00 am PST Live on Zoom | Registration is open to non-GBx members If U.S. expansion is on your radar — whether you’re actively planning or still evaluating possibilities — this session aims to replace guesswork with clarity and help you move forward with confidence.

Think hiring is on pause in London agencies? Here’s what we’re actually seeing. While employees often only see advertised roles or internal chatter, recruiters often have a very different perspective. From recent conversations across London agencies, a few patterns stand out: 🔵 Hidden demand: Certain roles — particularly midweight Account Handling, Strategy, Project Management, and BD — are quietly in demand even when teams appear frozen. 🔵 Short-term freezes vs. long-term growth: A team may announce a hiring pause, but talent mapping and succession planning often continue behind the scenes. 🔵 Emerging sectors: Retail, hospitality, and experience-led projects are currently driving much of the growth we see in the market. The insight? The market moves in ways employees rarely notice. Understanding these trends early can help you plan, prepare, and act when the right opportunities appear.

📣 VCs! Does your deal flow funnel look a bit..... homogenous? With only 2% of UK VC funding going to all-female teams and less than 0.5% going to black founders - and nearly half of all capital going to companies based in London - we thought we would put together a few suggestions based on recommendations from reports looking at increasing diversity at the top of the funnel. If your top of funnel isn’t diverse, it’s rarely because diverse founders don’t exist. It’s because many quietly self-select out. A few practical ways to widen the funnel: 🗣️ Use inclusive, specific language (clarity beats vague “exceptionalism”) 🚪 Be accessible with clear contact routes, open applications or office hours 📜 Signal commitment (e.g. Investing in Women Code, Diversity VC certification) 👭 Diversify sourcing beyond the usual universities, networks and accelerators 👥 Build balance into teams, panels and visible moments 🧰 Offer support beyond capital at the top of the funnel 📊 Track who enters your funnel and make DEI part of how you operate You don’t need to lower standards — you need to remove unnecessary friction. You can’t invest in founders you never meet. Full piece here: https://lnkd.in/eDwsgWf7 With thanks to the Invest in Women Hub, Invest in Women Taskforce, Diversity VC, UK Private Capital, European Women in VC, Level 20, Extend Ventures, The Table, Auxxo Female Catalyst Fund, Ada Ventures, Astia, Alma Angels, Social Mobility Ventures, Bethnal Green Ventures, Unconventional Ventures, Sie Ventures, Black Seed VC, Startup Discovery School, Climate Mosaic, Women in Cleantech and Sustainability, Sophie Purdom and Ramsay Siegal for your research, support and leadership. #VC #Cleantech #Climatetech #ZeroCarbon #Diversity #Inclusion
