Colin has more than 20 years’ experience in the enterprise software development industry. He co-founded Summit Financial Systems in 1994, the UK distributor for Summit, a US-based provider of derivatives software. Summit Financial Systems then invested its capital to develop a new trading system product: Tamesis.

Before co-founding Summit Financial Systems, Colin held senior sales, management and consulting roles at Logica, the leading UK systems integrator. When Logica became the distributor for Teknekron (now TIBCO) in the UK, Colin built the business into one of Logica’s largest and fastest growing business lines.

In 2002 Colin co-founded what is known today as TIM Group – the world’s largest independent trade ideas network.
