Martin Coulthard’s Summary

A Chartered Engineer with a strong record as an innovative technical entrepreneur, and broad international experience.
I have founded two companies: Surface Inspection Ltd (automatic ceramic tile inspection systems) and Stonecube Ltd (dynamic print visualization software).
Each of these companies invented and developed a world-first product, created and grew the market for the product and established itself as the leader in its field. I achieved successful exits from both companies; the first by an MBO, while the second was acquired by EskoArtwork, the international packaging solutions group.
I have also been active as a Business Angel investor and Non-Executive Director to other early stage technology companies.
