Nicola is an Award-Winning Tech Entrepreneur renowned for scaling businesses and orchestrating successful exits.
She founded her first company at 25 with £500, a mobile phone, and a bucket load of determination and turned that into 250k within a year.
Whilst she now resides in London, her Scottish roots mean she doesn’t take any BS. And with years of firsthand experience in growing companies from founding to exit – she’s not just your ‘standard’ NED.
Nicola went on to set up a sales generation business and became the UK’s number one lead generation business for the Insurance and Financial sector.
She also founded and exited a GDPR software company after raising more than 1.3 million in investment and built a channel sales model that led to IRIS software white labelling her solution, which is still sold today.
Created a manufacturing company from her kitchen table during the pandemic and, within 6 weeks, was stocked in 300 supermarkets, 7 European countries, and a major supplier to the NHS.
Nicola also has extensive expertise in the cybersecurity market. She’s held board positions where she advised on growth strategy and was responsible for spearheading transformational partner deals.
She is also a key spokesperson, carrying out media commentary and thought leadership pieces for industry-leading magazines.
But not everything she’s touched turned to gold – and she’ll be the first to admit that. She’s had many businesses that have worked, but she’s also made her fair share of mistakes along the way too. This is exactly why people have hired her. It’s a lot less expensive to learn from her mistakes than your own.
Or a ‘cookie-cut’ NED. And it means she’s not for everyone.
Well, how about the table?
