Microplastic contamination from synthetic textiles poses a growing environmental threat, with fibres from man-made fabrics entering water systems through washing machine effluent. As countries like France mandate microplastic filters in washing machines and the EU implements new wastewater treatment rules, innovative companies are developing filtration technologies and novel removal methods to combat this pervasive pollution problem.

As you're participating in the Food & Bio Summit, you will have a serious interest in the biotechnical aspects of the food and drink industry.

Military neurotechnology is creating unprecedented challenges for international humanitarian law as brain-computer interfaces blur the boundaries between combatants and equipment, medical treatment and military enhancement, and conscious decision-making and automated response.

Resilience and agility help companies survive disruption, but in a world of rapid change, businesses must encompass "continuous adaptation" for true success.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming arbitration practice, yet arbitral institutions have taken markedly different approaches to addressing AI in their procedural frameworks. While some institutions have published comprehensive guidance, others have remained silent, leaving parties to navigate how existing rules accommodate AI tools and what risks they face in using them without explicit authorization.

As organisations transition from AI experimentation to implementation, leadership and culture emerge as critical determinants of success. This analysis explores how effective AI transformation depends on clear organisational intent, psychological safety, deliberate work redesign, and the preservation of distinctly human capabilities alongside technological advancement.

The Digital Technology Global Talent visa offers a pathway for tech leaders and emerging talents to work in the UK's digital sector. Understanding Tech Nation's endorsement requirements...

As humanity ventures beyond Earth, the challenge of sustaining life in space demands revolutionary approaches to food production. From radiation-resistant seed coatings to microgravity-adapted root systems, innovations in space agriculture are creating new frontiers for patent protection while simultaneously offering solutions to terrestrial farming challenges.

In-house legal leaders envision a dramatically transformed budget landscape by 2027, where artificial intelligence absorbs routine legal work, alternative legal service providers fill the scalable middle ground, and traditional law firms retreat to only the most complex matters.

The AI-ERP debate most boards are having is the wrong one. The question is not whether AI replaces ERP, but which parts of the enterprise need certainty versus judgment—what must be deterministic and what can be probabilistic. Get that right, and the downstream decisions on budget, architecture, and headcount will follow.

DRDM's Intelligent Sales module empowers exchanges and market data providers to monetise data more effectively through AI-driven insights and automation.

Professor Richard Susskind challenges senior in-house legal leaders to rethink AI's role in the legal profession, arguing that while short-term impacts are overestimated, the long-term transformation toward Artificial General Intelligence will fundamentally reshape how legal services are delivered. Can legal departments prepare for a future where AI doesn't just assist lawyers but potentially replaces the traditional advisory model entirely?

A recent UKIPO decision has provided the first detailed application of the Supreme Court's landmark Emotional Perception AI test to computer-implemented inventions, revealing how the new framework produces materially different outcomes from the old Aerotel approach. The case involving FLIR Belgium's marine navigation display patent demonstrates that Hearing Officers are prepared to take a more nuanced, feature-by-feature view than initial Examiner assessments, particularly when features serve safety-critica

Judeth Neville sets out a few simple rules to allow you to make valuable strategic decisions on company, brand and domain names that will enhance your competitive advantage.

As artificial intelligence becomes embedded in everyday business operations, organisations face a critical shift in how they measure and reward performance. While better data promises more precise incentive systems, the ability to observe everything may create more problems than it solves, particularly when prediction is mistaken for causation and measurement begins to distort the very behaviours it seeks to encourage.
