About

I am a senior technology leader & investor, having worked on major mobile, digital & machine learning development & transformation programmes for over 30 years.

I have worked with organisations seeking to implement & develop their technology agility at scale in both the commercial & public sectors.

Most recently I%27ve worked with a mix of start-up, SME & large-scale, high-profile Media, Telco & Insurtech / Fintech organisations.

Based on my broad commercial & deep technical experience it is my aim to help emerging businesses to thrive by guiding, mentoring & supporting leadership teams to:

- Collaborate on & develop compelling & focused visions & strategies

- Develop products & services that truly satisfy customers

- Focus creativity & insight to deliver great outcomes & value for customers & for shareholders & investors

My experience & insight can, I believe, be best focused on supporting, guiding & mentoring:
