I’m extremely proud to announce that I’m this year’s Silicon Canal “Most Influential Male in Technology”, having been awarded the title at last night’s awards.

Silicon Canal is a project to create a world-class tech ecosystem in the Greater Birmingham region. At the time of publishing, over 209 tech companies have got on board with the project. With over 250 delegates, the awards aim to recognise emerging talent in the city.

I’d also like to say a big congratulations to Faye Pressly, who won “Most Influential Female”:
