John Connolly
Hull, Yorkshire, UK
Background & Experience
I have almost 25 years' experience of growing technology businesses - some I've started and lead, others I've just helped along their way with time and capital through a small fund I run. I studied Electronic Engineering at Dundee University for a bit, have a degree in Computing Science from Newcastle University, and was educated at Hymers College.
My main focus is helping founders with deep domain knowledge of their particular industry or sector and helping them accelerate their business by building technology capability.
Outside of work, I like anything that involves Land Rovers, Dogs, watching Rugby, playing Cricket & spending time with my family.
