Mark is the CEO of DigitalCity Business, a key partner in the Difference Engine. A graduate of St Martin’s School of Art in London, he soon found himself in the thick of business and in charge of his first enterprise: a small edit house that he helped develop into one of London’s most successful post-production companies. He then became the [then] youngest commercials director in town, making made films across the world for companies such as Volkswagen, Walt Disney, Ford, Caterpillar, Coca Cola, Granada, Yellow Pages, Unilever, and Procter & Gamble. His track record in the creative industries also includes extensive work as a creative director in branding, merchandising, licensing and product development. His track record includes taking innovative training company ClickHere from start-up to sell-through to a Plc; taking the DigitalCity project from a paper exercise to a fully fledged and highly successful operation with funding in excess of £40m; and at the same time, helping more than 100 businesses start up and grow.
