Its an exciting time for CW as we return to face to face events, with CW TEC on 22th June and the CW International Conference planned for 27th September. We’re thrilled to have Mark join us as we take on the privilege of delivering Cambridge Tech Week next year. This inspiring and aspirational tech event will bring together inspirational founders, government and corporate leaders, investors and the rising stars of Cambridge tech together for a week of in-person conversations, events and socials.
Mark brings a broad knowledge of corporate finance and venture capital as well as entrepreneurial experience helping teams build and test strategies, focus, structure and plan for growth. Mark’s career spans several sectors, from the Royal Air Force, SME lending, Life Sciences, and as a business builder at a number high growth technology companies. He has also lived and worked extensively in North America with clients such as Google, GoPro, Autodesk, Audi, Tesla and Apple. Mark spends his time mentoring and coaching entrepreneurs of the future and in his voluntary role as Advisor at Astia, champions and helps fund women in business, globally.
I’m delighted to join CW as the CEO, at an exciting time for the organisation and its members. The transformation of the wireless and digital economy is gathering pace. This will open new opportunities for our members and I’m looking forward to working with the CW team, board and members to deliver key programs and initiatives that will create further value going forward.
On behalf of the CW board, I'm very pleased to welcome Mark as the new CEO of CW. He joins at a very exciting time where there are a multitude of great opportunities within CW's grasp. I'm sure Mark will relish the challenge to lead the excellent CW team and take the organisation to the next level.
