Hanno anche la figura del Open Data Evangelist.

He formerly led innovation and community engagement work at Aidinfo and the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI). He also served as a director of Bond UK and Aptivate, where he delivered IT policy, strategy and implementation projects for governments, NGOs and international organisations across the developing world.
