David is an energetic entrepreneur. With a track record of high-value business development deal-making. Who knows a great opportunity when he spots one. It’s great to have him on board for employee engagement platform YourFLOCK.
He was the Global Director for Automotive Telematics at Vodafone. Following a career as International BD Director at INRIX (ITIS Holdings Plc.) Where he was responsible for the sale and delivery of leading-edge technology projects. To the likes of BMW, Toyota, Audi, Nissan and Hyundai-Kia.
So he knows the B2B sales space very well. He spent 7 years working for the Office of the CTO at HP. Specifically on innovative projects incubated outside of the standard business-unit structure. And so understands disruption and innovation.
As a serial entrepreneur working around innovation. David started and ran Digital Bridge since its founding. Whist he put together a board including individuals such as:
- Stuart Marks who runs corporate accelerator L Marks,
- Jonathan Well (ex Chief Digital Officer at MissGuided)
- Mike McGrath who is chair of a number of eCommerce businesses.

- NVIDIA Most Innovative Machine Learning Startup – 2017
- John Lewis Accelerator Winner – 2016
- Wired Retail Startup of the Year Runner-up – 2016
- Retail Week Live Startup of the Year – 2015
Whereas the startups and scaleups he helps also win awards. Just like Your FLOCK did with the Rising Star recommendation. David’s genius for this sector is well known. As well all his tech start up experience. He has a degree in Computer Science from the University of Manchester. And an MBA from the Manchester Business School. And will be helping getting the business investment-ready for the next round and putting in place plans to scale up the business to meet the demands of customers.
