Myself and the Softcat marketing team were recently thinking about how we start this years company kick off event. Some sort of presentation / images to calm the room down and focus everyones attention. We decided to put together a series of facts and figures that decribed the world we live in today. The sort of facts we uncovered were just incredible. So much so, that we decided to put them together in a quick video to share with you all.... Some of these facts are simply amazing!
