Description

In this episode, James Alexander, CEO and co-founder of Loop Horizon, joins Andrew to explore the often-overlooked use cases in digital transformation. Drawing from his experience at Sky and Loop Horizon, James outlines four types of use cases—standard, improvement, advanced, and rare—and explains why the latter two, though harder to define, often yield the greatest value. He emphasizes the importance of bridging marketing and technology teams, building confidence, and planning for both short- and long-term goals. The conversation is rich with real-world examples, strategic frameworks, and practical advice for organizations navigating data-driven change.
