About

I have over a decade of experience in Internet, Devices, Content Acquisition (apps and services), Media, Wireless and Emerging Technologies to my credit. • Highly skilled commercial negotiator of device & software deals.

A demonstrable ability to deliver enablers/solutions for Application development for publishers/brands – Winner of the Nokia Innovation Award for Ovi App Wizard. As a highly skilled negotiator of content distribution, marketing and licensing deals within EMEA and APAC, I have experience of the value chain from a carrier, content provider, brand, developer and device manufacturer perspective. Highly targets oriented, I have consistently delivered against set KPIs e.g. 1H 2011 exceeded deliverable of Top 100 branded applications by 50% for Nokia India; and growing Nokia content revenues from zero to in excess of €10 in 18 months for D! in 2007-09. With an exceptional understanding of the entertainment content and digital media business, I have the ability to be evangelistic about the future direction of content.

I am a creative and strategic thinker and a new idea generator; at Orange I was responsible for monetizing key brand and commercial partnerships, such as Orange UK Star Wars Campaign, BAFTA and Orange Wednesdays, with a focus on revenue growth. I am multi-lingual/multi cultural and highly adept at handling cross cultural negotiations, with significant experience in product launches in complex international environments.
