The new team is made up of James Harrison – formerly the founder of FUEL the leading data agency of the decade, Stefano Matteolli – a leading Digital analyst, Mark Phillips – the former Head of Ogilvy data strategy and consulting, who will become the Managing Partner of Konnect and chaired by Nick Horswell – formerly founder of PHD
Jon Wilkins, Executive Chairman at Karmarama said “It’s great to be working with James and Nick again and to have Stefano & Mark onboard. We firmly believe that creativity without data is vanity, but data without creativity leads to those really annoying ads that follow you round the Internet. With the newly revamped Konnect team we now have a best in class data offering to support our creative business”.
James Harrison said “I am excited by the opportunity Konnect provides to combine social, digital and transactional data to deliver the next generation of data driven marketing through a fantastically creative business.”
