I’ve spent over 20 years working in public markets, founding, investing in, and advising businesses in tech, telecoms, and finance. I founded Gaming Corporation plc, which listed on the LSE through a reverse takeover just a year after launch, growing it from £500,000 to a £50 million valuation in four years. I later chaired two AIM-listed companies and served as a non-exec at Coms plc, the best-performing AIM stock of 2013. Since 2012, I’ve focused on corporate finance, raising over £100 million for companies across multiple sectors.
