More than ever, businesses are realising they need a cultural home for their business online, that delivers them a continuous connection to the people and information they need. Modern intranet platforms like HUB provide that 'power of together', in an easy to manage and maintain solution that empowers these companies to achieve more, when they historically haven't had formal HR or internal comms functions.

Says Fenn, "When everyone is on the same page, rooting for the same goals, success is more likely, and individuals are more motivated. Modern intranet solutions like HUB, help deliver this commercial benefit. Over 60% of businesses are planning high to medium use of intranet sin 2024, up 17% from pre-Covid times."

Felicity Kenny, Managing Director of HR Dept says: "We're excited to partner with HUB on this important initiative. We work with over 6,000 clients across the UK, and often see that businesses that proactively invest in team communications have happier, more engagement engaged and productive teams."

"We're excited to partner with HUB on this important initiative. There are many aspects to good people strategy, but proactive communications is a crucial component."

Continues Kenny, "There are many aspects to good people strategy, but proactive communications is a crucial component. Openness and transparency build trust and inclusion. Even small businesses with just 10 or so colleagues can see the benefit of an intranet."
