Hugh Carling
Co-founder of Liveminds. I love to bring like-minded people together. Whether that's growing businesses, running online communities, staging events or captaining my village cricket team, nothing makes me happier than seeing people with a shared passion, coming together and making the most of it.
2013 was a huge year for Liveminds. Our team increased threefold and we’re proud to have now worked for more than 80 clients in 36 countries, in 24 languages. Even so, we know we are just getting started.
So we are very happy to announce that Martin Talks, former CEO/ ‘Big Fish’ of leading digital agency Blue Barracuda, has joined our Advisory Board, to help us achieve our goals. Martin has spent the last 20 years advising some of the world’s leading brands including Coca Cola, eBay and Pizza Hut. He grew Blue Barracuda from a 2 to a 70 person firm, before it was acquired by advertising network fcb and he became their Global Digital Lead. Before that, he listed an online platform business, shares information pioneer ADVFN.com, on the London Stock Exchange. On top, and perhaps because of all of that, he has also just written a book, “A to Z of Digital Detoxing”, available now – seemingly ironically – from all good e-bookstores.
Martin’s wisdom, experience and comic finesse are a huge boon to our team. We are really looking forward to working with him and growing Liveminds together in the years ahead.
