Stepping outside of your comfort zone | Andrew Grill | TEDxRoyalHolloway

He challenges the audience to embrace all their potential opportunities for success and to not give them away to social media and technology.

Previously, Andrew was CEO of leading social influence platform Kred, and presents at international conferences on a regular basis, while maintaining a well-read blog at LondonCalling.co about digital transformation and social business trends.

Andrew’s extensive commercial experience comes as a result of running Australia’s largest commercial property website, PropertyLook, as well as holding senior marketing and business development roles with Australian telecommunications companies Telstra and Optus. He was also responsible for launching Australian location technology company Seeker Wireless onto the world stage, moving from Sydney to London in 2006 to set up their European presence.
He firmly believes that in order to “get digital you need to be digital.
