About Jon

Jon has over 15 years experience in digital marketing and strategy, 10 of them purely in mobile.

As CEO of early m-commerce pioneer Scan Mobile, which he co-founded in 1999, he conceived and developed mobile retail solutions with rapid ROI for the likes of Argos, the UK's largest general retailer, and Orange, the European Mobile Network Operator. Scan Mobile was an idealab company, eventually acquired by Velti plc.

Since then, he has acted as a senior executive for three award-winning mobile solutions providers internationally: Run The Red (NZ) provided a background in CPG/FMCG mobile marketing; Fronde Anywhere immersed him more deeply in mobile banking and mobile solutions for retail financial services brands; Sponge (UK) provided him the opportunity to put his experience to work on results for major European brands like Barclays Bank.

Jon is currently open to freelance consulting projects, especially around mobile advertising and m-commerce, but otherwise splits his time between business development for Madvertise, the leading German mobile advertising network, and a new stealth startup in mobile social media.

An Englishman often found abroad, Jon is 6'4", and no longer has that nasty hair colour.
