      <itunes:summary>&#127911; Why AI Talent Is the #1 Growth Challenge for Businesses (and How to Solve It)

AI tools are evolving fast—but if your company can’t hire or retain the right talent, you’re already falling behind. In this episode, we speak with Chris Morrow, founder of specialist AI recruitment firm DigiTalent, about how businesses can compete globally for top AI professionals and what’s holding many back.

You’ll learn:

Why the real AI bottleneck is people, not tech
What roles companies are hiring for (AI engineers, ML ops, data architects, and more)
How to position your business to attract top-tier talent without Silicon Valley budgets
Why AI adoption is a cultural and organisational transformation, not just a tech upgrade
What the UK needs to do to become a global AI leader and how to fix the talent pipeline
Chris also shares what companies must do to build trust, stay competitive, and create inclusive, high-performing teams in today’s global AI race.

Whether you're hiring, scaling, or just starting to implement AI, this episode offers grounded, strategic advice from the front lines of AI business growth.
