As regular readers of the esteemed print edition of B&T would know we have an editorial board – a group of industry movers and shakers and thought leaders – that gives the articles added punch and prowess.

But let’s be honest, we probably hadn’t updated the thing since 1983. In fact, not only had some of the old board retired they may have actually died for all we knew (well, they certainly weren’t returning our calls.)

So in the spirit of modernity we’ve given the list a long needed overhaul. Sure, it’s still got all the industry heavyweights – Russell Howcroft, Jaimes Leggett and Tony Kendall to name but a few – but we’ve also added in some new young, fresh faces too.

So here it is, B&T’s newly invigorated editorial board. The people we annoy to bring you the news, the stories and insider information of this big, crazy ferris-wheel we prefer to call the media and marketing industries.
