Background

About Simon Davis

A proactive, adaptive and innovative creative broadcast technologist with a proven history of translating client requirements through soft skills of listening and empathy. I have a strong background in partnership management, client relationship building, and introducing clients to new technologies. I have a keen interest in cutting-edge technology trends with experience in developing a practical application backed by extensive experience with 2D/3D content and applications in content creation, virtual production, and emerging use of AR/VR and the early Metaverse. I am proud of pushing the boundaries within broadcast including the first live animation show on UK Television and introducing social feeds and QR codes for viewer engagement on screen. I am an effective communicator with an ability to present across all levels with a focus on removing or explaining technical jargon to an audience. This is underpinned by sound commercial and strategic acumen, translating to successful outcomes, growth and long commercial relationships. I am equally comfortable in collaborative team environments as well as in independent scenarios. I adapt well to both situations, applying my skills to lead and contribute to team success or driving results when working alone.
