Bio

Andrew is currently CEO of Rummble, an internet technology company. A passionate advocate of mobile technology, Rummble is his sixth internet start-up.

With 15 years in ICT including 8 years in mobile, Andrew also sits on the board of www.UnLtdWorld.com (an online platform which connects and empowers social entrepreneurs), is a founding member of www.mlovesociety.org and is active in the London start-up community.

Launching a fanzine club for Atari ST computers in 1989 he then started his first real company age 16, a consultancy called Computer Advisory Services; his school were his first client. As the internet became mainstream, in 1997 Andrew started VirtualCities a local business web portal, registering 150+ virtual city domains around the UK. Discovering the concept was probably early to market and struggling to get advertising interest, Andrew diverted resources into building e-business solutions for companies.

Consequently through the dot com years Andrew ran a successful web development company serving blue chip clients, which sold to CMG plc in 2000. There he developed the world’s first online digital video news archive with sister company Cambridge Imaging (www.BritishPathe.com with over 3500 hrs of video and 12 million+ images).

Since 2001 Andrew has founded a ground breaking interactive personal fitness website (InTraining) with Olympian Dave Morgan, was CTO of a CRM and marketing startup (TelephoneWizard), built the UK’s first interactive SMS flirting service (DinnerDateAuctions) and pioneered Europe’s first location based social software (playtxt).

As an authority in the field of mobile and online communities Andrew speaks at industry events and contributes to trade press.
