A PASSION FOR DIGITAL BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION

THE FOUNDERS

Andrew Moore

Andrew is an accomplished speaker, advisor, aspiring author and the co-founder and CEO of Digital Nexus Associates (DNA). Andrews role focuses on providing progressive but actionable advice and guidance to executives and senior business and government leaders who are wrestling with the spectre of “transformation” but are unsure what it means for them and how to make it real.

Leading up to this role Andrew was the Head of Strategy and Chief of Staff for Intel’s Industry Sales Group which preceded his role as the General Manager of Intel’s Global Strategic Accounts.

OUR VALUES

Over the last three decades, we, the founders of Digital Nexus Associates, have been in the fortunate and privileged position of having a 'front row seat' to both the machinations and innovations coming out of Silicon Valley. We've seen ideas grow from nascent concepts to advancements that changed the world, often with profound consequences. From the introduction of the commercial internet in the 90s, to Smart Phones, Social Media and Cloud Computing in the 00s, to the rise of the Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics today.

Additionally, and perhaps more importantly, our roles required us to engage globally with both private and public sector leaders, sharing our insights and advising on how best to ride the tide of innovation. This global exposure (for the record, Andrew alone has been around the world 175 times, in miles travelled, over the last 25 years - that's round the globe about once every other month!) has given us a first-hand, and deep, understanding of how those same technologies don't just transform business, but change people's lives.

We think our dual perspective - looking into the technology crystal ball, then witnessing the direct effects globally - sets us apart. This unique world view has also had a direct bearing on the nature and purpose of our business. It is this experience that led us to our core values, as follows:

Disruptive Technology: we are committed to the thoughtful application of advanced and disruptive technologies, as a vehicle to create financial value and economic growth

Digital Responsibility: we are committed to the development and application of Corporate Digital Responsibility as a doctrine, to drive tangible social, ethical and environmental progress

Knowledge Transference: we are committed to the transference of knowledge and skills, enabling leaders to practice digital transformation in a responsible manner that delivers both 'growth' and 'good'

Inspiring Others: we are committed to 'giving back' in a material way, by inspiring the next wave of bright, inquisitive, minds across the social spectrum, through a program of educational initiatives
