of Sales Strategies Limited, which is a consultancy that provides advisory and
delivery of business growth solutions for early-stage technology companies.
Mark holds a diploma in company direction from the Institute of Directors and
has prior AIM company experience as an interim non-board Commercial Director
of Imaginatik plc.

 

Mark's board level experience also includes non-executive board positions with
The Worshipful Company of Leathersellers since 2011 and Royal Artillery
Institution since 2016.  Mark is also a trustee of various charities,
including First Trust 1st Regiment Royal Horse Artillery and the
