In an ideal world, I'd have enough time and few enough practical distractions to be the modern version of the Renaissance Man. In... More reality, I'm into internet technology and all it does to change the way people interact with each other, with experience in this area including co-founding Spaaza, a location-based shopping search service which solves the problem of where to find a product you want in a shop near you; GyPSii, a mobile social network; and The Cavell Group, a telecoms/internet network and business consultancy. I also helping other startups including Libersy, an online reservations tool for small businesses and of course Skilio, the best idea for sharing your skills and picking up new ones ever invented.
Outside of technology interests, I'm a rather tall Brit who's been living in Amsterdam for the last 13 years, accompanied first by a dashing journalist girlfriend and then subsequently an ever-increasing number of children.
Before the arrival of the children my interests included pretty much any cultural, outdoor or sporting activity, but these days these have been pruned and are now reduced to reading good books, watching mindless soaps on TV, and sleeping.
