The daily grind just met its match - LEDC has handed over some of its day-to-day tasks to AI, and the results are fast, smart, and surprisingly human.
While some organizations are still figuring out what to do with artificial intelligence, LEDC has already put it to work. From our Daily Roundup to our AI-generated podcast, we’re using tech-forward tools to deliver local business stories faster, sharper, and in more formats than ever.
This isn’t just about shiny tech for the sake of it. It’s about eliminating the administrative work that eats up time and energy and letting our team focus on what matters most: telling real stories, connecting real people, and supporting real growth.
We’ve integrated AI into our publishing workflow to do what humans shouldn’t have to summarizing, compiling, and sorting through piles of daily content. The result? A clean, timely roundup of London’s business activity that lands in your inbox every morning and a podcast that turns it all into something you can actually listen to on your drive.
The move comes from a simple question: What if we stopped doing things the old way? What if we built systems that didn’t just work harder — but worked smarter for everyone?
That’s why LEDC isn’t afraid to experiment. We’re taking calculated risks with tools like Drupal, Notebook LLM, and automated voice production — the kind of stuff that usually lives in the labs of tech startups, not city economic organizations. But we believe local storytelling and business support deserve the same level of innovation.
It’s about leading by doing. It’s about removing friction. And it’s about giving our audience information in the formats they actually want — short, relevant, and on the go.
So while others are still scheduling their monthly updates, we’re already hitting “publish” on tomorrow’s.
The bots are helping. The stories are flowing. And London’s business community is getting news that finally keeps up with it.
