Martha Lane Fox, Baroness Lane-Fox of Soho, joins Tanya to talk about her pioneering career in digital; from the earliest days of the dot.com boom when she co-founded Lastminute.com in 1998; through her work as government Digital Champion from 2009-2013, spearheading the digitisation of government and the launch of gov.uk; the establishment of her responsible tech charity doteveryone which ran from 2015-2020 and finally, to her current role as Chair of the House of Lords Covid-19 Committee, which is looking at the long-term implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economic and social wellbeing of the United Kingdom. The episode focuses on digital inequalities in the UK, the large section of the population still without internet access and digital skills, and how the UK must eliminate this digital divide.**Please subscribe, rate and review if you enjoy the podcast**Find Martha on Twitter https://www.twitter.com/marthalanefoxIt's Complicated is on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/itscomplicatedpodFor more about Tanya Goodin visit https://www.tanyagoodin.com and Time To Log Off https://www.itstimetologoff.com Get Tanya's books: 'Off: Your Digital Detox for a Better Life' and 'Stop Staring at Screens' Find out about the digital detox and digital wellbeing course from The Time To Log Off Academy: https://timetologoff.teachable.com/p/digital-detox-course It's Complicated is produced by Time To Log OffTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/timetologoff Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timetologoff and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/timetologoffnow Hosted on Acast.
