FULL BIO

Defying his mother’s advice that ‘the internet will never take off’, Andy began tinkering with the web in the mid-nineties before starting his career at Fibernet Group plc as the company’s European webmaster in 2001.

In 2003 Andy joined KnowledgeCenter, a knowledge management consultancy focused on the London insurance market. During his time at the company he provided web content and knowledge management consultancy to a number of prominent global clients including QBE, Benfield, Catlin, Arthur J Gallagher and Montpelier Re.

With more than 10 years of industry experience, Andy is an expert in the ever-changing field of online collaboration and is heavily involved in the London start-up community. Andy holds a degree in Economics from the University of Sheffield. He enjoys fencing and skiing (both badly) but excels at sitting in sunny beer gardens discussing films, music and cool stuff he recently saw online.
