After almost 7 years, the time has come for me to hang up my Digital DNA hoodie and embark on a new challenge.
Digital DNA has, without a doubt, been one of the most exciting and rewarding roles of my career. Which is why this decision has by far been one of the most difficult and scariest decisions I have had to make, especially as Digital DNA has been at the centre of my professional life for so long now.?
It has provided me with a wealth of opportunities, experiences and connections, especially within the tech and digital industry. And I’ve been lucky to have met and been introduced to so many amazing people who I have built genuine and enduring personal and professional relationships with, not just here in NI, but right across the UK, Ireland and the US.
The past four years, in particular, have been incredibly rewarding. To witness Digital DNA not only endure but flourish in the face of unprecedented challenges in 2020 and 2021, and then go on to host some of the most memorable and successful events in 2022 and 2023, has been an extraordinary journey to be part of.?
Of course, I couldn’t have done it without a very small but dedicated team of people who I have had the pleasure to work with over the years, and who have all contributed in their own way to make Digital DNA the business it is today. You know who you are and I will be forever humbled and privileged to have worked alongside you, to have delivered some amazing work with you and to have shared so many amazing experiences with you!?

This may be the end of an era for me at Digital DNA but I’m excited for what comes next for the brand, especially under the leadership of Business Post Live & iQuest. The team based in Dublin have a wealth of experience delivering dozens of events a year across the Island of Ireland in multiple verticals and I have every confidence their experience will take Digital DNA to even greater heights….And I cannot wait to be an attendee and fully enjoy the unique Digital DNA experience that 1,000’s of people have enjoyed over the years.
So what’s next for me I hear you ask…well, my immediate focus is to enjoy delivering one final event with an amazing bunch of people in Glasgow. So if you want to be in the room and hang out for one last time, get in touch. I might just know someone who can hook you up with a pass ??
Beyond that, I’ll be taking some time before deciding on what the next chapter will bring.
