A graduate in Business and Accounting from the University of Exeter, he previously worked for internet incubator Brainspark, AOL, MAMA Group, Tangozebra (now Google) and advertising agency Fallon.

Tom Blakemore. Head of Technology.
Tom has over 17 years technical and design experience working on web and mobile projects ranging from small content-managed websites to large, business-critical applications.
Whilst earning a Masters in Mathematics from Warwick University, Tom unexpectedly discovered his true passion was the web (rather than numbers) and the focus switched from trying to solve the unsolvable to designing and building stunning-looking web applications.
After starting out in a small team for the UK's largest consumer organisation (CAMRA), Tom moved to Acknowledgement in 2010 to join one of the the finest development teams in London and work on exciting and challenging projects.
Away from a keyboard Tom loves nothing more than listening to live music in a traditional pub with a cracking pint real ale.

Since graduating with 1st class honours in 2000 from the Arts University Bournemouth and winning an award from the Royal Society of Arts, James is lucky enough to have worked with well-known high street names as well as up and coming brands whilst being part of teams at MSD, Oyster (now LBi), Yammayap and Acknowledgement.
James lives and breathes design, but also enjoys photography, playing badminton and reading science fiction novels.
