Just who is Oli?

I was asked this question this morning by a friend. Datuk Ahmad Talib (visit him at http://ahmadatalib.blogspot.com/) rang me and asked me if i have written anything about Oli.

I said, ok, i will do so now. Here it is :

This is what Oli's website (www.olibarret.co.uk) says about him:

He’s an ambassador for the UK’s Make Your Mark campaign, and brought the concept of Speed Networking to the UK, something which he continues to host regularly.

Other companies he has helped to launch, and remains a shareholder in, include SockRush.com (the sock subscription service), Soflow (the business networking site which merged into Wis.dm), and FriendsAbroad.com (the world’s largest language learning exchange).

After dropping out of University, Oli became a Butlin Redcoat (entertainer and compere) and worked with Hit Entertainment on the launch of Bob the Builder, going on to work with the BBC, Disney and Sony Wonder in New York. He founded his first company, Amazingyou at University, growing the team to 150 people in 9 cities and hosting events to connect students to young professionals for inspiration and opportunities."

So, come and see what SpeedNetwork is all about - 11am at Wisma MCA.

Cheers
