He has business culture experience across the board from start-up operations to major corporates, including Macmillan and Thomson, where he was on a divisional UK Board as Sales and Marketing Director. He has a law degree from Kent University and a MBA from Henley Management College.

His love of sport has recently led him into a number of ‘unique’ projects in the international cricket market, and in the summer of 2006 successfully organised and managed the historic, first ever tour of the Afghanistan national cricket team to the UK…an experience he will never forget… and continues to assist in the development of the sport there.

Simon Wharton - Founding Client

What's a founding client? A founding client is a business that took a leap of faith when we pitched to them, especially because they had no one to recommend us to them! They have showed such devotion to what we do and commitment to our future that it only seemed right to involve them in our future. Simon Wharton is the Managing Director of VirtuAffinity, a company that we are very proud to call our Founding Client. VirtuAffinity is a leading web design agency based in Manchester specialising in developing sites that look good, are easy to use and become dynamic and essential tools for their clients' businesses.
