New consultancy launches to address poor communication within digital transformation projects
The Floridant/10211259

LONDON - Floridant -- Marketing communications veterans, Ian and Lucy Thatcher, have launched a new consultancy, Robots & Humans. The ambition is to help those buying, selling, or building advanced technologies communicate clearly and with impact to enable better adoption, sales enablement, and increased ROI.

According to research by Harvard Business Review, some 70% of technology and digital transformation projects fail, and typically only 16% of the workforce believe digital transformation has brought about improvement, mostly attributable to poor communication and misunderstanding amongst organisations. As advanced technologies become mainstream in our home and work environments, these challenges will only amplify.

Ian Thatcher, co-founder of Robots & Humans, has worked agency-side for 20 years, delivering marketing communications strategy and campaigns for some of the world's more well-known brands. Ian said: "Every project in my career has involved designing, implementing, or promoting new technology. I've also witnessed huge tech projects go spectacularly wrong. With the emergence of robotics, AI and advanced technologies, clear communication of more complicated tech is only going to become more essential for those buying, selling, or building technology. We're on a mission to improve understanding and get humans up to speed."
