BEN STARKIE

For over two decades he has worked in strategic media, content and storytelling for leading digital media, tech, food & drink and sports brands, including Unilever, Coca-Cola, Intel, Yahoo!, Polar, Logitech and Skyscanner. He is founder of Cumulus Communications, a small, integrity-based comms agency, and is also a committed supporter of various humanitarian and child protection charities. Give him a thread, and he’ll weave a story.

In those rare moments Ben isn’t at work or raising his two lads, he can be found in an ice-rink, puzzling over a game of blitz chess, on a run or up a mountain. Often at the same time.
