The “IT & Motorsport” channel combines both interests, exploring how IT businesses benefit from motorsport marketing with presentation of desk-based research, interviews, and reporting from live events.

In motorsport I have previously worked in sponsorship acquisition. Today I’m a sponsor, activating a partnership for MSP Finance Team with BTCC Champion Tom Ingram.

In my day job I help MSP business owners become happier and wealthier: applying 25+ years commercial IT experience, which includes co-founding, developing, and selling an MSP business.

If you are part of the MSP/IT and motorsport ecosystems let’s connect and collaborate.

Thanks for watching.
