I came up with the idea of Circle Square as a way of helping people become more physically and mentally active, thereby helping society at large. Working with Nick has helped me to shape and focus this exciting new venture.

It was as a Captain in the army where I first learnt about management.  This got me started as an entrepreneur: I founded Isys, a distance-learning and IT services company, which I sold to Alchemy Capital.  Then in 1992, I established an Online Analytical Processing Technology company which was sold to Microsoft in 1996 and is still in use today.   Later, I set up Healthcare Learning, which was Europe’s leading provider of commercial, internet-based training services for healthcare professionals.

I am passionate about my many charitable endeavours, including being a University Governor and a Trustee of the Faith and Belief Forum.
