Being part of the Tech Mahindra global family provides access to cutting edge innovations for our clients and colleagues! Our new Growth Lead, Melanie Spencer, has not stood still, attending several events with our parent company in her first few weeks! She recently got a behind-the-scenes look at Mahindra Racing in Banbury, exploring how technology boosts e-racing performance and the future potential of AI in sport. It was fascinating to see the parallels with business and how data insights and incremental gains can drive big success. 📈 This past weekend, Melanie and her family cheered on the Mahindra Racing team at the London E-Prix. Here’s what she had to say: "On Saturday, my family and I supported Mahindra Racing alongside colleagues, families, and customers. What a day it was! Mahindra Racing excelled by scoring 22 points, with Nyck De Vries finishing 4th and Edoardo Mortara 5th. 🏎️ It’s amazing to see how our company drives the technology behind one of the world’s top-performing e-racing teams. After the race, myself and our Head of Growth Sushant Lall joined the Tech Mahindra team along the river, where we heard from Manish Upadhyay (He/Him) and Pankaj Kulkarni about the drive and determination of Tech Mahindra and their #ScaleatSpeed philosophy."

Industry professionals welcomed the government’s decision to make the housing sector a central focus in the King’s Speech, but they recognise there's a big task ahead. 🏠 Melanie Spencer, sales and growth lead at Target, is quoted in today's Mortgage Solutions article and said it was not surprising to see housebuilding play a central part in the speech. However, she said successive governments had “limited success” in housing delivery targets and questioned whether changes to planning rules would do enough to resolve this. Click the link below to read more from Melanie on the need for the industry to “continue to play our part to transform the home buying experience” alongside wider industry reaction and comment. #KingsSpeech #HousingMarket #Mortgages
