Well this was a lovely bit of news! Excited to share that together with our amazing client partners at Dogs Trust, aer studios been shortlisted for a BIMA award in the 'Charity & Social Enterprise' category 🎉 Our journey with Dogs Trust spans over 5 years now and remains one of our proudest partnerships. We we're initially engaged to re-platform, design and develop their new website - dogstrust.org.uk.

Over the last eight years, an increasing number of programs, co-working spaces, and accelerators/incubators have appeared in #Bristol and surrounding areas. It's hard to keep up with all the changes! Over the same time frame, there has been a greater sense of competition as commercial pressures and macroeconomic factors shift. And our entrepreneurial business community is still considered opaque even by those who work within it. Consequently, local founders, business leaders, and innovators aren’t always aware of the opportunities that exist for them. In tandem, there are some complex factors at play when it comes to identity - for the region and for the business leaders who live and work here. Are they Creative? Tech? Innovation? Bristol? South West? West of England? Startup? Scaleup? I believe our community can learn more from one another, across creative, tech, and innovation boundaries and that the more we can share about the opportunities available, and minimise the effort required to engage with them, the better. So I'm introducing The Bristol Business Bugle! This brand-new, concise, weekly newsletter is designed to connect, inform, and celebrate the creative, tech and business community. It is running on substack and is entirely free for at least the first six months so click this link to sign up: https://lnkd.in/e2jXTm55 #regionaldevelopment #GreaterBristol #startup #scaleup #leadership #community

Calling on the collaborative spirit that defines this region, we will showcase the incredible innovations, businesses and people that reside here; amplifying our strengths that firmly place the South West as a rightful leader in the Creative Technology space on the national and international stage. ✏ We will be running an interactive workshop where we'll be joined by key community figures and industry bodies to explore the strengths that make our regional creative tech scene unique and tackle the challenges holding us back. ...and ultimately work out why SXSW isn't being hosted in the South West next year (clues in the name, right 😉 ). 🕜 09:30 - 11:00 (🥐 + ☕ included) 🎤 We'll also be hosting an all star panel discussion where we will collectively set the future vision for creative technology in the region.

🚨New episode alert 🚨 Digital Sustainability and the Elephant in the Room with James Hobbs from aer studios is now live on Skip the Queue. The last twelve months have been the warmest of any twelve month period since records began. And while over 70% of attractions have a sustainability policy, only 12% have actually tested the CO2 emissions of their website. James shares some easily actionable tips to reduce the emissions of your website, from his experience as an engineering leader and a member of the Umbraco Sustainability Team. I'm not fibbing, it's jam packed with advice, some of which I've already followed and changed the way Rubber Cheese works as a result.
