Founder & CEO
Bob is the founder and CEO of Appsynth, a multi-award winning digital technology consultancy in Thailand with a team of 150 mobile and digital specialists. Appsynth was recently recognised as the #1 fastest growing IT company in Thailand in the Financial Times High-Growth Companies index of 2023.
A mobile industry veteran, Bob started working in the industry in London back in 2006, predating the launch of the iPhone. Seeking something new, he relocated to Thailand aged 23, then founded Appsynth 2 years later, helping to develop many of Thailand’s earliest mobile apps. Since then Appsynth have completed over 100 projects, serving clients across 15 countries and 4 continents.
Founded in 2010, Appsynth was amongst the first consultancies globally offering app marketing and analytics services in addition to development. Clients have included many of Thailand’s largest businesses including 7-Eleven, Line, Kasikorn, True, Sansiri, Honda, SCG, PTT, Minor and Rabbit to name a few.
Bob started his first business, a hip-hop record label, aged 18, instead of going to university. Working in music at a time when digital was disrupting the industry showed Bob the transformational impact of digital. Since then Bob has dedicated the rest of his career helping established businesses embrace technology to succeed in our increasingly digital world.
