It is with even greater pride that I can lead the new Sharktower business as CEO during the next phase of growth. It is an exciting time to be able to headquarter and grow a technology company with global ambitions from Edinburgh – continuing to benefit from the amazing ecosystem that has been created here and the continued support of Scottish Enterprise.

It enabled us to grow the Sharktower engineering team from 5 people in 2016 to a mature product organisation of over 30 people today. The world is being transformed by AI and data-led processes and Sharktower is already a leader in the space of AI-driven project management; this is absolutely the right time for us to stand alone, accelerate our vision and diversify our opportunities. I am immensely excited about the opportunity we have in front of us – and I can’t wait to continue to help our customers remove the waste and failures in project delivery.”
