Alastair

Founding partner

Having worked in the Digital Industry since 1999 and having been lucky enough to work with one man bands right through to global businesses I feel blessed with the ability to pass that knowledge on through speaking gigs across Europe.

I am very actively involved in helping my agency Optix Solutions with its growth strategy while also working with brands and individuals who want to level up their personal brands. Get in touch if you need a speaker or you're looking for digital advice.

I also run a peer group for Senior Marketeers called the Marketing Leader Community (MLC). In this group, we keep the members up to date with the latest trends, tools and news from the industry so they don’t have to do the horizon scanning themselves. You can find more about the group on the website – https://www.marketingleaders.community
