Your Majesty — 10 things
November 17th · Issue #294

Hey ,

It’s been an exciting week at the YM offices, with a client project launch for which we celebrated with tacos, hurrah! 

Our AI Masterclass is the perfect way to cut through the stream of AI announcements and just get hands-on in a dedicated session—and our clients think so too. 

“Essential for any forward-thinking organization, offering a broad appeal across different disciplines. We highly recommend this masterclass for its depth, practicality, and relevance to today's digital landscape." —Virginia Yanquilevich, Dopper CEO

Fancy skilling up before Christmas? We’re offering an exclusive 20% Black Friday discount on our masterclass packages for bookings made in November. Get in touch with Georgios today for further details. 

Our usual internet round up below, enjoy!
