Meet Andy Bacon, Technical Director
April 23, 2020
We're proud to announce the hire of our new Technical Director, Andy Bacon, who comes to us with over 10 years experience in a similar capacity from the property sector. With an honours degree from the University of Plymouth, Andy will be based in our London HQ and will play an integral role in moving Meshh’s vision forward as a data insights industry leader.
We could not be more thrilled to bring him on board!
We asked Andy a few questions to learn a little more about him, how he’s spending his quarantine and what he’s most looking forward to in his time with us...
What are you reading right now?
Tim Marshall’s Prisoners of Geography, a deep dive into how people's lives and governance are impacted by the geography of the countries we live in.
If you could pick up a new skill in an instant what would it be?
It'd be the trumpet, so I could give it back to my neighbors. After a day's work and the evening routine, there's only so many poor renditions of "When the Saints Go Marching" anyone should have to listen to.
Working with Meshh is exciting because...?
I've always been fascinated by the relationship between digital and physical spaces, how people interact with both and the use of technology to develop insights and opportunities to enhance their experience. In an interconnected world with ever increasing amounts of geolocation data, Meshh is the right partner.
For anyone who actually likes When the Saint's Go Marching In, here's a version from Bruce Springsteen at New Orlean's Jazz and Heritage Festival!
Stay Safe,
Meshh
