Gaylene Ravenscroft

I ran a web agency for seven years which taught me to understand and appreciate the complexity involved to develop a business successfully. I understand the pressure clients are under.

I am South African living with a heritage of cultural challenges; I appreciate and respect diversity in all people and encourage teams to express their individual passions.

Being used to working in an extremely competitive environment, I can easily adapt to multiple industries such as aviation/transport, luxury, technology, FMCG and bring my specialist knowledge and insight across sectors.

I have been in the online marketing industry for over ten years which has given me a plethora of digital knowledge including gaming, mobile, application development, connectivity and social media.  As a marketer I do not see digital as an isolated channel but rather an opportunity to create innovative ways to engage with audiences.

Africa is very close to my heart, I have set up a philanthropic project to empower youth through the use of technology in schools in my spare time. I fundamentally believe that you are the creator of your destiny and everyone is a leader.
