Staying on top of important news stories is tough, especially when there is so much going on in the industry and so much that is published that is just ‘noise’. We’ve found a solution that can help! We started to work as a team internally to help digest the information and share the key stories without bias. No, this is not about promoting Brilliant either. It’s about helping people in the industry stay informed and highlight content we enjoyed.
