We are delighted to see that an article in Yahoo Finance, discussing how lockdown fatigue is affecting businesses, has featured Theta’s research. In our survey of 2,000 employees, we found that 11.8 million UK workers — 57% of people — do not want to go back to the normal way of working (in an office…
We recently shared our research with London Loves Business which shows that many workers are more comfortable working from home and do not want to go back to the office. This period has shown that employees working from home can be productive and while some teams will have to return to the office for necessary…
I was delighted to share my thoughts on what the future holds for the UK deals market with The Fintech Times. In this piece I discuss how the majority of 2020 was a slow year for the UK’s deals market as the uncertainty brought about by an ever-changing set of rules and demands on businesses…
In an article for Business Insurance, I spoke about why businesses should invest more in cyber security.

I recently commented on the benefits of working from home in an article for The Freelance Informer.

I recently spoke to Manchester TV about how 2021 will be a big year for M&As and other kinds of deals. This past year has really allowed smaller firms to compete in a way that has been difficult in the past. There are no more advantages to a massive office in Canary Wharf when everyone…
It was great to have our data featured in The Guardian recently discussing how eerily empty the City of London has been. Although seeing London looking so empty and quiet feels quite melancholic, we found that actually, almost half (45%) of City workers said they want to continue working from home after the pandemic, as…
News of the success of the UK’s vaccine rollout programme to this point has boosted optimism that we can return to normal this year. There are, however, a few things that are not likely to return to exactly how they were pre-pandemic, with City offices being one of them. The SME Club today featured some…
The appointment of the new President, Joe Biden, is likely to have a major impact on finance, trade, climate change measures, global security practice and many other sectors, particularly in such a turbulent time. I discussed this and the impact of Brexit in the latest issue of Finance Monthly. With Joe Biden looking to have...
I am delighted to have been featured in Intellectual Property Magazine discussing what UK professional services will look like after Brexit. The UK has finally completed its exit of the EU, and a new trading era has begun. However, despite the successful negotiation to reach a trade deal ahead of the 31 December deadline, little…
