Article: 6G: Can it really shape the future of connectivity
Fifteen years ago, 4G was about how we connected with each other through smartphones. Five years ago, the hype surrounding 5G centred on the introduction of new use cases, driven by increased speed, very low latencies, and enhanced reliability. With 6G, the focal point of the next-gen promise appears to switch from connectivity to sovereigntyContinue reading “Article: 6G: Can it really shape the future of connectivity”
Post-quantum cryptography: the new era of cyber defence
Quantum computing is no longer a distant possibility; it’s an emerging reality. And with it comes a fundamental threat to the cryptographic systems that secure our digital lives. In this timely publication, we explore the rise of post-quantum cryptography (PQC), the proactive, quantum-resistant approach to safeguarding data in an uncertain future. From understanding the limitations ofContinue reading “Post-quantum cryptography: the new era of cyber defence”
Article: Closing the climate credibility gap
How digital companies can turn climate promises into measurable action As digital transformation continues to accelerate, so does its energy footprint. From cloud platforms and telecom infrastructure to artificial intelligence and data centres, the digital sector is a major contributor to global emissions, and yet, its climate performance remains largely unaccounted for. A new reportContinue reading “Article: Closing the climate credibility gap”

Seizing the Initiative: How governments can accelerate AI adoption and innovation
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming industries, shaping economies, and redefining how we interact with technology. As AI’s influence expands, governments worldwide are adopting different strategies to balance innovation with responsibility. Broadly, these approaches fall into two categories: regulatory frameworks and incentive-driven initiatives. While regulation ensures responsible AI use, excessive restrictions may slow innovation. Conversely, anContinue reading “Seizing the Initiative: How governments can accelerate AI adoption and innovation”
AI Regulation: New world, new rules
Artificial intelligence (AI) is evolving faster than we ever anticipated, revolutionising industries while raising critical concerns about ethics, security, privacy, and accountability. As AI’s influence grows, so does the urgency for effective regulation. Governments and policymakers around the world are grappling with how to manage AI’s risks without stifling innovation—but there’s no single global approach.Continue reading “AI Regulation: New world, new rules”
What Makes a Nation a Digital Hub?
