Companies

Adrian embarked upon his business career after graduating with a BA (Honours) in Geography from Durham University and a MSc in Geographical Information Systems from the University of Edinburgh.

His first job, at Pinpoint Analysis Limited, was short-lived. Within a year of starting, his first employer was taken over by another London-based market analysis, GIS software and data consultancy. The new buyers kept only Pinpoint’s Managing Director, a few sales people and the client list.

Undeterred, Adrian and his work colleagues incorporated their first company, Business Geographics Limited, the next day. He has gone on to found or co-found several more companies and enjoyed working in highly varied situations for both his own enterprises and his own customers, including some of the largest ‘blue-chips’ in the UK.

Two of the companies that Adrian co-founded have been acquired in £ multi-million deals. Information about these companies is given below.

Other noteworthy ventures that Adrian has operated over the years include:

Adrian remains committed to the start-up community through his investments in and involvement with IQ Capital, the Cambridge (UK) based Deep Tech Venture Capital fund.
