CEO, Knexus
London, United Kingdom
I've worked in tech for the past 17 years.
Originally I worked in Silicon Valley start-ups, building successful relationships with Apple and Compaq amongst others. In 1996, I formed an internet consultancy, Momentus, working on internet 1.0 strategies with companies such as Goldman Sachs, Nomura, Morgan Stanley and McGraw Hill. The company was successfully sold through a trade sale in 2000.
I subsequently spent one year as a senior partner at Chicago based consultancy firm Diamond Management & Technology Partners.
In 2002 I founded Knexus, a media-tech company with deep expertise in digital technology and social media. Knexus is headquartered in New York, with offices in London. The company provides the leading integrated social media and rapid learning platform, used by companies globally such as Cadbury, Dell, Ingram Micro, Nokia and Shell to build trusted relationships, create profitable conversations and drive monetization through enhanced engagement.
