Background

About Dean Casey

I am a digital wizard, engineer, a born problem solver and part-time helicopter instructor. I am passionate about leveraging technology, specifically mobile, chat, and artificial intelligence services, to revolutionize the way businesses operate and serve their clients. By automating and augmenting their services, I provide them with a powerful platform for growth and success. The ultimate goal for me is technology for a purpose. With my built-in dislike of poor customer service, I focus how technology can be used by our clients to enhance their businesses and improve their delivery to their clients. To best use my skills, I co-founded my own software business called Nutcracker Technologies with my father 25 years ago. We built trading and portfolio management systems to automate and enhance our clients’ businesses. Our clients ranged from small owner run firms to large top 4 corporate banks (in SA) and the largest stock exchange in Africa. We are extremely proud to be part of all our client’s growth and success. In one case from a fledging wealth management business with 25 internal professionals and few thousand retail clients to over 500 internal professionals and nearly retail clients in just over 10 years. All anchored on Nutcrackers software platforms and made possible by keeping their technology costs low and sophisticated problem solving. My family’s relocation from South Africa to the United Kingdom and the meant it was time for my exit from Nutcracker SA and to look for new experiences. Fortunately the recent demand of personalised client journeys and the explosion of AI and services has felt like Christmas for me. I am in technology heaven. I am now loving building software to enhance my clients offering and relationship to their clients as well as automate their internal processes. My client’s success is my success. I am also enjoying offering digital disruption consulting to my client so that they can take advantage of the explosion of AI services rather than be disrupted by it. I am always available to chat.
