  • Owner and Founder

    Rawnet Limited

    – 15 years 11 months

    I founded Rawnet in July 1998 and grew the business over the next ten years to become one of the largest digital agencies in Berkshire, winning clients such as Honda, Honeywell, Castrol, O2 and many more. I left my full-time role in 2007 and agreed an MBO with my business partner so I could focus full time on Venntro Media Group.

    I am delighted to see the business continue to grow and prosper, delivering award-winning projects for amazing clients.
