Partnership Development Director, Two Circles

As well as delivering front-running marketing tech and services for the sports industry, the company also dedicates itself to improving diversity and inclusion in sports, including its "Diversity in Sports" mentoring program that aims to accelerate the growth of under-represented talent across the industry.

Two Circles works with more than 300 sports rights holders, including the likes of the NFL, UEFA, F1, and the ICC, as well as $1bn in sponsorship revenues. A series of acquisitions has contributed to the expansion of the business - for example, that of Australia-based digital specialist Codeware, which came alongside the opening of a Melbourne office, has enabled it to grow its presence in the Oceania region and bolster its tech offering.
