Senior Innovation Manager for a large bank, currently based in London, UK. I'm fascinated and passionate about technology trends, innovation, the future of the web/technology and how they are changing the way that we live and function. Specifically, topics such as the semantic web, socia media, payments/banking, ubiquitous computing and environment issues are all high on my radar, but that list is long and always growing!
