Show Notes
Russ Shaw, Founder of London Tech Advocates and Global Tech Advocates, discusses London and the UK’s place in the tech world and how it differs from Silicon Valley, the urgent need to support digital skills growth to protect the tech ecosystem and why the new government needs to be clear on its tech policy strategy.
Shaw founded London Tech Advocates – a non-profit launched to champion and empower the burgeoning London tech industry in the early 2010s – and has since gone on to build a network of Global Tech Advocates, supporting tech hubs across the UK and internationally. Shaw also discusses his role in the UK’s semiconductor strategy and why Labour needs to clarify its position on it.
