UK & International Ecommerce News Roundup - 26 July 2021

Filed in:
News, Insight

It's only been a few weeks since the Euro's finished but national pride is still going strong as we support our Olympians in Tokyo.

So far the UK has already achieved 15 medals - 5 of them gold - and there are a lot more opportunities to come!

We haven't always had pride in British sport - in fact we remember a time when it was all a bit embarrassing. However significant funding over recent years has showcased the importance of investing in talent to produce more, and better, athletes.

Of course, the same is true in business; it's no secret that if you invest in people - develop & nurture them - you'll not only improve retention but also attract new & better talent too.

It's a win-win.

With that in mind, why not invest some time in reading our latest ecommerce news roundup.

Enjoy!
