British High Commissioner to Ghana, His Excellency Iain Walker, writes on the UK-Ghana prosperity partnership to accelerate a shared Ghana Beyond Aid vision.

When it comes to building a more prosperous future, the UK-Ghana partnership is driving the agenda at the UK-Africa Investment Summit.

Ghana is changing the narrative around the future of the African continent. Last year, the nation captured international headlines and energised the global African Diaspora through the ‘Year of Return’.

The real story of Ghana is out there - one of aspiration, ambition and energy, and a journey to greater economic self-reliance.

The UK Government shares His Excellency President Akufo-Addo’s ‘Beyond Aid’ vision for Africa. The Continent has 8 of the 15 fastest growing economies in the world but currently receives less than 4% of foreign direct investment. It is in all our interests to change this paradigm.

The Hidden Costs of Cloud Computing 
Starting with your cloud infrastructure was simple. You ran up a few instances, maybe created an AD structure, added some storage; as it's easily scalable you added a few more things and the pay for what you use pricing seemed ideal. But very quickly you've added even more services and when you receive your next invoice you've been landed with an unexpectedly high bill. Now you start to analyse the invoice but there are thousands of line items and it can be almost impossible to identify what is needed, what is underutilised or poorly optimised so I'd like to give some pointers into ways that you can tame those costs and identify where the hidden extra charges may be hiding.

1. Unused Instances

As it's so easy to run up an instance in the cloud it may not be surprising that one of the biggest unnecessary costs is unused instances, so you end up paying for services you are not utilising. Managing change control should include turning off instances when they are no longer being used.

2. Under Used Instances

Enterprise architecture shouldn’t be about compromise, especially when it comes to enterprise storage. However, if you need agility you use the public cloud, if you need speed and reliability you build this in house, if you need both agility and performance then you have to weigh up the risks of your compromise. You can’t have it all. Or should we say you couldn’t have it all? 
Roberta Keating explain how in this new article.

“IQ Finance were recommended by the hardware manufacturer and I was immediately impressed with their approach. The team really went out of their way to accommodate our needs and it was refreshing to work with a finance company who chased us to keep the project moving, rather than us chasing them.” – Alasdair Lumsden, Founder of EveryCity

With #Brexit on the horizon, is the tech industry in danger of losing talent?
 
The effect of Brexit is triggering the most concern for IT #professionals according to a new report by CWJobs.

CWJobs Confidence Index revealed that despite 89% of #tech professionals having a positive outlook, over a third (38%) list the political landscape as their biggest concern for the industry. Tech professionals also predict AI will become vital in the future according to the study with 42% believing it will be needed to succeed, just behind #cyber #security (44%).

The public sector could be in danger of losing talent, with more than four in five (83%) revealing they would consider leaving to join the private sector in the next five years.

Everything changed in 2020 and it is again in 2021 but for the better.

And while change is a constant in business, this current and continuing state of flux is on a scale not matched in recent memory.

In order to ride the changes, we are advocating a full and frank objective re-evaluation of everything you think you know about your business. And an ongoing process of evaluation and action that should ensure in 2021 your business can achieve:

Increased Profitability
Predictable Revenue
Practical Dynamic Strategy

We know that this is a daunting challenge.

These searching questions are always hard to answer within a functioning business.

Are your sales and marketing strategies and processes working as well as they need to?

If not why not?
Who are your customers now, and where are they?
What are they buying and why?
Are they buying what you’re selling?
If so, are they buying from you?
What needs to change?

We are objective, and we are experts at dealing with shift and flux.

Will the promised lifting of restrictions on the 19th mean a return to business as normal?
I'm not sure normal will be a thing for a while!

Decades often end when there is a defining moment in the new one. Covid is that defining moment. 
As we head towards the end of January in many ways it seems like we are still stuck in 2020.
When we look back on the year, 2021 will start with the reopening of our economy after Easter.



As we move towards summer and autumn it’s time for all business review their sales channels and their marketing. 
The first half of this year has changed so many things so assuming that your customers have not been impacted is foolish.
Revise your buyer personas and buyers journey first.
