Hacking

While before the coronavirus struck, the world was very much in the throes of a ‘digital age’, now more than ever, industries are doing what they can to keep up with the latest technologies and innovation.

The distinctiveness of your business is probably based on a kernel of intellectual property. This is usually a design or product which took time to develop and hone; a secret recipe or process; a data set built up over years; a unique design feature which sets your products apart.
