Across the food and beverage sector, there has been a clear trend towards higher-quality products over the past 15 years or so. In an effort to differentiate, food and drink manufacturers have been carving out niches for very specific, high-quality product ranges. From botanical health drinks to all-natural pork scratchings, the range and quality of products have been steadily increasing.
In the alcoholic drinks market, the shift towards more diversified and premium drinks has been most notable when it comes to beer and gin but is starting to be recognized in other categories, such as rum, as well as driving entirely new categories of spirits. Alcoholic drinks manufacturers and retailers need to be ready to jump on these trends in the near future or risk becoming obsolete.

When I started out in the organic products business, there were hardly any organic products! These days it’s possible to get virtually every food imaginable in organic format, and in ever-increasing quantities.
The world beat a path to our door when we first had organic brown rice. Now it’s a commodity and you can get many different kinds; long grain, short grain, red, black, basmati – all organic.

If your staff use headphones, or work in a noisy environment, or are exposed to loud noises on a regular basis, then it’s your responsibility to help protect their hearing.
Human beings have about 15,000 auditory hair cells in each ear at birth; once they are gone, they are gone – and so is your hearing. Exposure to large sound doses regularly and repeatedly can cause irreparable damage to the hair cells within our ears.

Despite its evolution over the centuries one change has eluded the publishing industry – going direct to the readers themselves. Now technology is allowing this to happen which means that the publishing landscape is starting to change again.
Publishers have always acted as gatekeepers between readers and authors. The lack of direct contact with readers and plus pressure from retailers to publish more books like the bestsellers from the previous year, means they rely on historical sales data to decide which books should be made. If there is no successful precedent, this makes it harder to justify supporting new ideas and original stories from the diverse range of voices clamoring to be heard.
Now, using technology platforms, authors and online content creators can ‘prove’ their audience exists by capturing it through social media themselves. This combined with a vast amount of data to analyse, and more viable ways to make sense of it, means the radical tech-enabled evolution of the publishing industry is inevitable. This evolution will democratise the industry in favour of authors and readers, while creating new opportunities for publishers themselves.
Here are important ways in which I believe the publishing industry will change, and soon.

The adoption of digital in early-stage investment has moved more slowly than in other industries. This is no surprise as human relationships are part of the process of matching investors and businesses. However, the world of early-stage investment is changing and recognising that digital does not have to mean impersonal. In reality, it can help build deeper relationships in a shorter time. This is because it provides new ways to communicate, share information and ultimately make it easier for investors to navigate the process to find the right opportunity and make the investment decision.
