Artificial Intelligence, Fourth Industrial Revolution, Internet of Things – these are the buzzwords of our times. Enormous potential, however, also brings enormous risk. Ransomware, Denial of Service, Data Security – these should also be on everyone’s lips. Too often they’re not.
With several IT qualifications, more than 20 years of experience in numerous IT functions and management qualifications from the London School of Business & Finance and Cranfield School of Management I understand how IT can drive growth and am also a recognised expert in risk mitigation and cybersecurity.
I have co-authored two IT books: ‘Adapt and Overcome’ shows how to securely navigate the new landscape of work. ‘Cybersecurity NOW’ is vital for businesses that need to protect themselves against ever-increasing cybersecurity threats. (My next book will focus on the world of cyber threats.)
I am a proud member of The Entrepreneurs Organisation London, and have worked and collaborated with the likes of the UK Space Agency, WeWork, Energy UK, Edmond De Rothschild, the Federation of Master Builders and Dimension Data.
