Hosted by Peter, an accomplished tech and business expert, the 'Tech Your Business' podcast is your go-to resource for all things tech, business, and growth. Brought to you by Target ICT Ltd, a leading provider of innovative tech solutions and consulting services dedicated to empowering businesses to reach new heights.
If the Tech you use in your business overwhelms or frustrates you, if you want to learn about new ways to implement Technology to boost productivity and profitability without getting bogged down in technical jargon? This is the place for you.
Target ICT was launched in 2018 after the founder's journey through 8 years of running multiple businesses. While tech tools offer a distinct advantage to every business, they are often presented in a way that makes them difficult and overwhelming to adopt, with an overload of industry jargon. This creates a situation where clients are unable to fully utilize these tools due to the added complexity.
Target ICT was founded by someone who has owned both online and brick-and-mortar businesses and can fully empathize with the struggles and frustrations of fellow business owners. The Tech Your Business podcast was launched in 2022 as a free resource to help this demographic!
Target ICT was started to apply the founder's decade of experience in using Tech to stay ahead in business. If you are tired of Tech providers who don't understand the needs of your business, too good to be true guarantees and fancy, jargon-filled presentations from service providers who don't deliver, You are in the right place. We are registered with the Companies House in England and Wales
At Target ICT, our core values revolve around clarity, empathy, integrity, innovation and client satisfaction. We are committed to ensuring client fulfillment by providing clear, jargon-free communication and tailored solutions that genuinely address the unique needs of each business. We approach every interaction with empathy, recognizing the distinct challenges our clients face. Operating with transparency and honesty, we build trust through consistent and reliable service. By staying at the forefront of technology, we offer the most innovative solutions to help our clients achieve their business goals.
One windy day in February, 2018, while taking a stroll down New Walk in the middle of Leicester, our founder got the idea for Target ICT Ltd.
This was to combine his lifetime love for Technology, decade of starting businesses where technology gave an edge, ability to break down and communicate complex concepts simply as well as his love for problem solving.
The Problem
You start a business to render a service you're good at.
In today's world, you typically need technology to get things running more efficiently and you end up spending so much time picking the right Tech or fixing Tech that breaks (which it does all the time).
This can be a frustrating and time wasting experience for any business owner.
More Of The Problem
Many businesses turn to tech consultants for help. The issue? These consultants often have deep technical knowledge but lack business insight. This leads to communication gaps filled with jargon and solutions that don’t quite fit your needs. It’s a mismatch that costs time, money, and peace of mind.
About Us
After starting businesses in various continents in food, procurement, ecommerce, IT and Fashion over a decade where Tech was his unfair advantage, our founder saw the struggles others faced with technology. He started Target ICT to bridge this gap. We’re here to be your tech partner, speaking your language, and focusing on what matters most: your satisfaction.

Think a Neurodiversity Journey. Take A Leap & Transform through the art of speech with Richard Blank
Take A Leap & Transform: A Neurodiversity Journey
Joseph K Muscat
Every two weeks, my purpose is to bring you through a journey of Neurodiversity awareness and skillsets in the workplace and with entrepreneurs. This is all about transforming our mindset, finding purpose, discovering our superpowers, setting clear goals and creating solutions that will increase productivity and profitability by becoming more inclusive and diverse.
I would like to illustrate how my new venture came about and to do that I have to tell you a bit more about myself and my journey. Hopefully, this will inspire you to accept yourself for who you are and you will be able to relate.
I am neurodiverse... not sure what that is...? Well, simply put, it's a person who has been diagnosed with one or more learning disabilities. In my case, I have few; Visual Motor, Visual Perception, Working Memory, and Dyslexia. This has been both a struggle and a blessing for me; over the course of my education, relationships, employment and my various businesses.
I was diagnosed with visual motor and visual perception at school age and to this day I am still trying to fully understand what they mean. Both my family and teachers were not able to offer me sufficient support. Struggling at school became the norm for me, but I persevered. Despite these challenges, I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from York University and then later on I continued on to study at Humber College, in Toronto Canada.
My path was set. I would be a professional photographer... and I remained on that path for 20+ years. Over my years following this path, I developed my entrepreneurial skills in order to be able to consult many clients with their projects, objectives, social media marketing, business development and client relations.
In 2014, we embarked on a new adventure out of Canada and moved to Malta as a family, to seek new challenges and opportunities for us. This is where I re-evaluated my path and took a step back from photography in order to focus on other business opportunities. I carved out a new path for myself where I worked with various companies in project management and business development.
https://youtu.be/baQakoEZdgI
2018 was a turning point for me. I was in my third job on the island, which was very stressful, my learning disabilities were showing, I couldn’t hide them anymore. It affected me emotionally which in turn affected my family...
Over the years I had searched for private support in relation to my learning disabilities. This was challenging as learning difficulties are often perceived as a childhood problem and thus there is very little support available to adults. Not being able to find the support I needed, led me to take the challenge upon myself and create a system that I could implement to help me in my entrepreneurship. It entailed lots of trial and error, many workshops and books to read. But in the end, I finally can say that I have created a Seven-Step Transformative Management Methodology (SSTMM) solution for adults with learning disabilities who are either running their own business or are employed. I believe that if it is implemented correctly it will greatly improve the working environment and provide a solution to their challenges.
This was the birth of my consultancy business.
Joseph K Muscat
Take a leap & transform
Throughout my extensive experience in entrepreneurship and various professional roles, I have encountered three significant challenges that have shaped my understanding of the importance of fostering Neurodivergent talent. Firstly, the lack of awareness and understanding among employers and managers regarding the unique thinking and working styles of individuals with Neurodivergent traits. Secondly, the need for comprehensive knowledge and strategies to provide appropriate accommodations, support, productivity strategies, and coaching tailored to Neurodivergent individuals. Lastly, the absence of management awareness, skills, and resources to effectively foster and cultivate Neurodivergent talent for the long-term benefit of both the individual and the company as a whole.
These challenges have inspired me to dedicate my time to self-improvement and acquiring the necessary knowledge and skill set to overcome these obstacles. As someone who has personally experienced learning difficulties, I have become a passionate advocate for individuals facing similar challenges and a valuable resource for business owners seeking guidance in implementing transformative changes to accommodate Neurodivergent talent.
I invite you to join me in taking a leap forward, embracing a new perspective, and unlocking the untapped potential within your organization.
