The digital revolution is reshaping businesses across all industries, making digital skills more crucial than ever. That’s why, on 16 January, we brought together business leaders, digital experts, and industry professionals for Making Digital Work for You, a high-impact event hosted by the Cambridgeshire Chambers of Commerce and supported by the Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP).

We captured local business leaders as they shared their thoughts on this event, digital transformation, and how businesses can best leverage digital tools.
