About Nelson Wootton

I am a London-based entrepreneur with a background primarily in business technology. I started my first company aged 18 and sold it as a going concern three years later. Since then I’ve founded and sold companies in the music industry as well as the retail and technology sectors. I am interested in companies that challenge, disrupt or change existing business models and business processes. Many of the businesses I have started or invested in share this common characteristic. Since childhood I have been fascinated with problem-solving and logic puzzles. I still enjoy a hands-on challenge and can write software in 12 different programming languages when necessary, although my problem-solving work today is more typically at a technology architecture level.
