In 2007, recognising the need to become highly active in the digital and online publishing arena, George led the reverse takeover of Ingenta, so establishing Publishing Technology as the first full service digital and print publishing systems provider, as well as listing the business on the London Stock Exchange.
Despite stepping down as CEO of Publishing Technology, George remains an active board member and involved in the management and future of the company.
With more than 20 years in the publishing sector, George has started technology and publishing consulting businesses in France, Brazil and most recently in China, where he was appointed by the State Council for Information to the China Book International Advisory Board in 2013.
With extensive experience of talking at industry events worldwide, George delivers on the one hand a chilling view of the changes afoot, and on the other, an optimistic outlook for the opportunities publishing and any industry face during a period of seismic shift.
