About Matt

From humble beginnings - starting my own gardening business at 16 and going on to gain a 1st class Honours degree in Engineering and Business Management I have worked hard to always be learning and improving. I was given an amazing opportunity in Pharmaceutical manufacturing IT then to Microsoft and Perot Systems where I led international consultancy teams in the USA. I returned to the UK to become CTO of Severn Trent, led a major IT transformation programme then started new challenges in recovering a dotcom bubble burst business selling it to Computacenter. 4 Years later after an amazing time at such an amazing IT organisation, I left as a founder of Pulsant as well as a Medical analytics and Wind farm businesses in 2011. I exited Pulsant in 2017 having helped create a £100M business, and started my next venture in rebuilding the Centiq SAP business. In 2021, I exited both the medical analytics and Centiq business following a hugely successful developments. Centiq, now a global thought leading SAP on Azure specialist was acquired by SoftwareONE. We also started work on our 3rd Wind Farm in Scotland. My day job is running a Cyber Security automation specialist CloudGuard and mentoring other startup businesses. I am a NED for BCN Group in Manchester but keen to always be helping others...
