Lab | Digital Agency

When Jonny and myself decided to build something in 2006 we were in a bedroom but had big dreams. Our journey took us from there to a little loft office space then onto Woking, Cape Town and finally London. We went from installing routers to helping shape digital strategy for some of the biggest companies in the world. And now LAB is doing some of the progressive work combining psychology and human behaviour with digital to transform brands and organisations that want to do more good in the world.

CEO & Founder

Adroit Software

Believe or not they let me write code across almost 100 programs that were built to run builders merchant business. I ended up becoming rather efficient in SQL Server functions which served me extremely well during my crazy bachelor years if there was any awkward silences on a date.

Developer

Legal Scanning Technologies

Did someone say 8 hours of scanning legal documents, every day...yes the creatively named Legal Scanning Technologies employed people to do exactly what it says on the tin. Possibly not the most fulfilling work but I think it helped build resilience and gave me a fire up my a*se to continue learning so I could do something else!

Tom Head

The best advice Tom Hanks ever got was on a film set.

But, it’s applicable to everyone in every aspect of life.

Here’s what it is:

1. Show up on time
2. Know the text
3. Have an idea

That's it.

 > Show up on time - that’s 5 minutes early BTW.
 > Know the text - which means know what’s going on.
 > Have an idea - bring some additional value.

Those things are ALL in your control.
They are YOUR job.

Do those things and you’ll leap ahead of most.

Don’t overcomplicate it.

Got any advice that beats this?

♻️ Repost if you're tired of the "10 secret habits of success" nonsense.

A single photo. Any photo.
AI now knows exactly where you took it.

No GPS tags and no metadata, just the pixels.
GeoSpy got so accurate they had to shut down public access.

• That holiday snap you posted?
   ◦  Location identified.
• That "working from home" selfie?
   ◦  Not at home. Busted.
• That client's confidential facility?
   ◦  Coordinates exposed.

They restricted it to law enforcement and enterprise.
I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or even worse…

It makes you think about where we’re headed from a privacy perspective.

This is probably the best AI made content I’ve seen.

And if you just stumbled across it you wouldn’t have known.

The discussion around whether we will watch AI content isn’t really about the tech.

We will absolutely watch AI content and if it’s well made we’ll enjoy it.

It will sit alongside content that didn’t use it, and content that used some of it.

AI can generate voices.
But it needs help to tap into vulnerability.
AI can create content.
But it needs guidance to create connection.

The scariest part isn't replacing creators.
It's creators forgetting why they create.

When everyone can make films,
not everyone will make films that matter.

Tools don't create meaning,
humans do.

Your move isn't learning every AI tool.
Your move is remembering what they're for.

Patrizia Pepe® Firenze - Tessilform S.p.A.

Exectuive manager and supervisor of five units:
- Comunication & P.R.
- Digital arts and multimedia production & management Unit
- Ecommerce branch office

Thanks to outbreaking results obtained while managing E-Commerce branch office both in advertising and sales turnover, the C.E.O. and executive board promoted me to a new level of executive management. Together we decided to create a new team involving different areas that were supposed to grow in a "cross-collaborative" way. The conjunction of Comunication & P.R. as well as Visualmerchandising led to us to develop this really special and etherogeneous group we internally call "Pepe Media Lab" (where of course Pepe takes inspiration from brand name) intending with this label the group combines all necessary to dominate the multimedia stage concerning each kind of operation the company ever does.
I'm glad to say we succesfully created a "technological marketing" area where technlogy is the basement of all the process. This mostly is due to my past experience and cultural background, but of course it represents the way Patrizia Pepe® re-thinked about marketing and comunication in the digital era.

Communication and Multimedia Director

Sodalux

As a result of growing success in B2B and B2C activities held under my leadership in 2014 alongside with same entrepreneur from Patrizia Pepe we decided it was time to found a newco, whose purpose was to go to market offering the unprecedented level of service we initially invested to design and develop for Patrizia Pepe.
The company, initially called Sodalux, acquired 2 Ecommerce customers and 2 B2B relevant case before joining a bigger group, Giglio Group listed on MI FTSE AIM under GGTV, which was heading to expand its own operational capabilities from simple media/promotion for luxury brands to full stack ecommerce service provider.

- Infrastructure design: I believe application can't do so much if based on non responsive infrastructure. That's why I keep constantly informed on every "best of" news and push internal lab to test those solution that can help company to overcome actual limits.

- Application design and deploy: another part of the work is that of managing application coverage for business critical processes.

- People management: actually managed 9 people spreading from Help Desk, EDP management, application design and deplyment, web design, data management.

- Budget withdrawing: critical and non-critical coverage with founds for IT projects and mantenance

My mission is that one of pushing a new way to look at IT.

Ahimè a dispetto delle sovrastrutture manageriali dei grandi gruppi, siamo di nuovo difronte allo stesso paradosso accaduto al momento in cui é nata l’era del web 2.0

I nuovi brand, quelli piccoli, affamati che catturano attenzione e fanno ancora le fil davanti ai negozi (magari solo digitali) disegnano i loro processi PARTENDO dall’utilizzo dell’intelligenza artificiale.
E rifiutano da subito i metodi di approccio tradizionale.

Mentre gli established impiegano centinaia di giorni per convincersi su di un minimo POC che deve anche portare ROI, c’è chi scatta scrivendo nuovi modelli operativi e li lasciano nella polvere.

Potrà andare avanti ancora per tanto questa discrasia? In fondo le grandi aziende dovrebbero avere le migliori menti, quelle con più esperienza e meglio strutturate. Alle quali però manca - sopratutto per chi fa tecnologia - il coraggio di affrontare “il business” raccontando che il modo che hanno di lavorare presto non esisterà più.
E rassicurando sul fatto che possono accompagnare i colleghi in questa transizione.

Lo so è difficile, richiede dedizione, studio e un pizzico di fantasia - a volte follia - per identificare percorsi che non sono così scontati.
Ma la rivoluzione è già iniziata e provare ad arginarla con comitati complessi che non riescono a decidere, avvocati che discutono inutilmente di privacy e norme di vario genere, non fa altro che avvantaggiare la corsa di chi cerca di ritagliarsi una fetta sempre maggiore di consumatori.

Che magari non torneranno indietro solo per inseguire la tanto professata asprazionalita. 
Un termine che mi comincia a fare “anni 2000” e che rischia di esseee oggi desueto.

C’è molto da riflettere ma sopratutto c’è molto da fare.

E poco tempo da perdere
