Matthew Ivey

Darren was a good friend and colleague during my time with Arqiva. I always found him to be very creative whilst able to do a lot with quite a little in terms of resources. Would recommend Darren to any company I happened to work for.

Darren's ability to productise technology and make it meaningful for the business people that buy those products is unparalleled. He is one of the best experts I know who can make complex messages accessible and engaging. He is also brilliant fun to work with.
