Ian Ginn

Founder/Director at IFG Consulting

With 20 years of telecoms experience, Ian Ginn was one of the first to blog on 6G back in 2014. His work and interests span a broad range of topics in the software and mobile space. Core networks, OSS/BSS applications and device apps are just a few examples, supporting operators as they transition to digital, IT and cloud services and was recently a judge for the prestigious GloMo awards for smart cities.

Ian works with ambitious organisations that challenge the marketplace and likes to understand how technology relates to the real needs of consumers and businesses.  A trusted CXO advisor and consultant, he leverages insights into markets and technology developments to affect growth as well as success. Key to his thinking, is the question, ‘How can we facilitate operators’ objectives to ensure they are equipped for tomorrow’s challenges?’

With an additional interest in startups, Ian is Director of Bluebird Ventures and Mentor at Startup Direct.
