Aurora’s staff write articles and speak at conferences on both the technical and business aspects of the financial industry. We’re equally at ease writing or speaking to a technically-savvy audience as to a technically-phobic one. Translating technical / industry jargon into layman’s terms is one of the skills we’ve developed over the years.
Here are examples of some of our work:
