We have published Issue 4 of Business Quarter, led by our cover profile with JS Pelland, executive director of Eland Cables.
The Q2 2026 edition looks at the operating work behind growth, from infrastructure and workforce capability to risk, data, leadership, and brand visibility. Pelland’s cover profile traces his route from Montreal to London and into Eland Cables, where growth has been shaped by cable testing, stock depth, logistics, supplier relationships, grid connection, and service reliability.
Our big issue asks whether AI growth and green goals can coexist, examining the power demand, cooling requirements, data centre footprint, Scope 3 emissions, supplier exposure, and energy claims behind digital expansion.
The issue also includes our quarterly leadership moves and market snapshot, alongside contributor pieces from Charlotte Livingston of Weavr on embedded finance in employee benefits, Fauzia Syed of Rabat Business School on capability-led hiring in the age of AI, and David Morgan of the Career Development Institute on career management as working lives become longer and less linear.
Technology and risk coverage includes Glen Williams of Cyberfort on cyber resilience beyond insurance, Craig Gravina of Semarchy on the data foundations needed for AI, and Justin Kuruvilla of Risk Ledger on supply-chain risk in financial services.
Elsewhere, Matt Huntly of Sampl and Lee Rorison of Seriös Group discuss scale, data, accountability, and quality, while Amrit Sandhar, Natalie Mackenzie, Madeleine Barnes, Heather Delaney, and Nicolaas Kroone cover compassionate leadership, sleep, fractional marketing, search visibility, and content localisation.
