Simon believes digital marketing skills should be part of a core set of business knowledge and is passionate about empowering people to be able to use them.

He pioneered web-based marketing with some of the world's leading brands and today, through his business, Oxford Digital Marketing, he is actively passing on that knowledge and experience to the UK business community.

A frequent public speaker and writer on the subject, Simon is a true digital marketing innovator. He started his career in the late 80's implementing solutions for companies like DEC, Sun and Tektronix. Simon is also an entrepreneur; in 1996 he co-founded Relayware.com with his wife Louise. It developed one of the world's first enterprise-level, web-based, marketing automation solutions, which is still used today by leading brands like Sony, Lexmark and Lenovo.

Being a business owner, entrepreneur and ‘techie’ means Simon is the perfect person to advise and support businesses looking to harness digital to accelerate their growth.
