About this speaker
I do many things in the creative and tech spaces, but it’s all about creativity... At CivTech I’m leading a brilliant team driving daring and innovation in the public sector by collaboratively solving challenges that make people’s lives better - and in doing so creating generations of sustainable, high growth companies.
I’ve built Accelerator programmes and delivered them, coaching and mentoring literally hundreds of start-ups and thousands of entrepreneurs. And I do this across both the private and public sectors, and for both profit-driven initiatives, and ones with different bottom lines. Along the way, I’ve raised millions of pounds of funding for both capital projects and delivery. I’ve overseen major build projects and managed them through to success.
