Meet Pradyumna (Pady) 👋 our new Senior UX/UI Designer! "I’m Pradyumna Rajaram, also known as "Pady". My background is in industrial/product design, and before joining Vestd, I worked with startups, asset management, and physical security systems." "I’m thrilled to collaborate with an incredible team of legendary designers and a sharp-minded team of developers at Vestd, while also working closely with our other amazing teams. I’m excited to contribute, learn, and create an enhanced design system for our platform together." Fun fact: "Along with earning the Presidential Award in Scouts and Guides when I was young, I also designed the colour combination for the "Suryakiran" aerobatic aircraft of the Indian Air Force."

Happy World Entrepreneurs Day! ✨ The UK’s entrepreneurial spirit has seen a remarkable shift over the years. Back in 1999, only 3.3% of people in the UK were starting businesses. Fast forward to 2023, and nearly 30% of working-age individuals are either planning to start a business, actively working on it, or already running one. But let’s be honest - the journey is far from smooth. Small businesses are often at the mercy of fluctuating markets and global events that can disrupt everything from supply chains to customer demand. And while AI and tech advancements promise to improve how we do/conduct business, they also represent an uncertain element. So, what’s the way forward? For me, it’s about smart planning and resilience. While we can’t predict the future, we can stay informed and invest in the right tech and people. Technology is the foundation of how businesses operate. For small businesses in particular, every tech investment needs to be deliberate, with a clear eye on how it will benefit you today and in the future. Invest in tools that help you focus on what truly matters. However, the MOST important element of any business is its people. So, for me, at least as important to how an entrepreneur deploys their financial resources, is how they secure, nurture and deploy their human resources. Growing a business isn’t just about numbers and tech; it’s about people. Building a team with the right skills—both technical and mental—should be one of your top priorities. Adaptability, positivity, and openness are just as important as any certifiable skill. As we navigate these changes, what’s your main focus—tech innovation or building a strong, adaptable team? How do you strike that balance?
