What's affecting me, my clients, my colleagues and other global small business owners:

  • Globally Local, one of the world’s first vegan fast-food chains, announced it will begin publicly trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol GBLY on April 16, 2021.  Interesting name‎!
  • Pandemic shipping delays and product scarcity could last through summer 2021.
  • Cryptocurrency (bitcoin) is increasingly being used for transactions and is beginning to go mainstream – and global – as an investment.
  • Quote of the week:  "Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in human history.  Unfortunately, it might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks." – Stephen Hawking
  • Will artificial intelligence dominate 2021?
  • The future of the workforce – robotics and manufacturing.
