    4. Digital technologies that enable creative, intuitive, responsive enhanced productivity.
    5. Ecosystems that are balanced, well maintained, secure and seamlessly integrated.

  • SOCIAL MEDIA
    BUILDING NEXT GENERATION PLATFORM
    The Information age requires new ways to restructure knowledge content, rethink social rules, boundaries, infrastructure and management that governs the new 'network society'. Where businesses need to adapt to the constant frictions of the cultural, social and political evolution dictated by people, commercial interests, technologies and institutional policies. A process I'd like to call 'rumble in the jungle'; what kind of 'designer animal' would you like to be?

    With maturing of cloud, big bandwidth, decentralization, blockchain and smart mobility technologies, it is a great time for legacy businesses to join my deep space exploration for new digital frontiers through pioneering innovation while upholding the heritage and legacy of great traditional businesses. I am working to create next generation of digital platforms, and digital business models that can complement existing core products and services. Disruption with discretion. I design for high volume social interactions, provide greenfield commercial viabilities, and new revenue streams.

  • FUTURE VISION
    BRIDGING EAST & WEST
    I am a product of East & West, Design & Technology. From my first digital project at age 12, programming a PONG game on a Tatung Einstein PC (Manufactured in Telford!), to teaching myself Photoshop 3 at Central St Martins, to be the first at Goldsmiths Design to teach self DHTML. My interest in digital possibilities has lead to exciting adventures over the years. Being part of the 'Cool Britannia' movement. The 'Forum for future designers' was launched at Powerhouse: London, a prominent exhibition showcasing best British creative talents for the millennium, alongside the work of Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen, James Dyson and others. Introduction endorsement by the UK Prime Minister. Meet and greet with the 1st ladies of UK, Japan, and South Korea. A personal demonstration to HRH Princess Royal at the opening of Goldsmiths Tech and Communication library. A launch by HRM The Queen.

    It leads to setting up a startup office with partners @ Truman Brewery that produced numerous innovative initiatives, including a live news streaming mobile application which was the Guardian's first ever mobile application in the UK. My life's work is pursuing the futurist vision, with projects prepared, waiting for the right time and opportunity. This future has arrived. It requires precision execution with partners, investors, and sponsors. I believe digital can lead to profound positive commercial transformation and social change. I wish to bring together the best of what the East and West has to offer through iGlobal. To bridge better communication through 'edutainment', trade, celebrating diversity, respect through solidarity and prosperity.
