A Different Perspective podcast: Martin Higginson, Founder & CEO of Huddled Group plc

This week Nick talks to Martin Higginson, Founder & CEO Huddled Group plc.

Martin is a seasoned Technology, Media, and Telecoms (TMT) entrepreneur with a history of founding, selling, and listing multiple businesses. His entrepreneurial journey began in 1982 with the sale of his first business, a BMX magazine, to IPC Magazines. After three years with IPC, he established the publishing and telecoms company Megafone, which he later sold to Scottish Power plc. At Scottish Power, he became Managing Director of the Internet and Interactive division of Scottish Telecom, overseeing Demon Internet. Martin then founded Monstermob Group plc, which listed on AIM in 2003 and grew to a Top 50 AIM listed business with a market capitalisation of £192m before its sale to Zed Worldwide in 2006. He has since founded Cityblock plc, NetPlayTV plc, and Digitalbox plc, which was ranked as a FastTrack 100 Company in 2016 and 2017. Martin is now Founder and CEO of Huddled Group plc.

Nick and Martin discuss Martin starting out as a photojournalist, starting his own magazine and his entrepreneurial journey to date.

Martin’s book choice was Outliers by Martin Gladwell.
