Zen’s Regulatory Manager to speak at June ISPA Seminar in Manchester
Have you ever wondered what the Internet Service Providers Association (ISPA) do or maybe you’ve been thinking about joining ISPA yourself.
If yes, then please come along to a free seminar that I’m speaking at on Thursday the 21st of June in Manchester at the offices of Squire Sanders, full details here.
The event will give you an overview of the work ISPA does and I’ll be talking about why Zen chose to become members of ISPA and how my role as ISPA Council rep and Regulatory Manager has helped Zen stay ahead of the regulatory landscape.
I look forward to seeing you there.
About Gary
I joined Zen as Senior Operations Manager in December 2006. With over 31 years of management experience 17 of these have been in a senior capacity within the ISP and Telecommunications industry.
I have worked with companies that include many other well known ISP brands such as Prestel Online, Breathe Online, Planet Online, ScottishTelecom (Demon), Iomart (Madasafish and VirginBiz), Videonetworks (Homechoice) and many more.
I've always engaged in regulatory affairs specific to the ISP industry and have represented companies I've worked for over many years at Industry level including working with the wider ISP community, ISPA, Linx, Government agencies and regulatory bodies such as Ofcom.
I'm a keen advocate for self-regulation and the development of the Internet industry as a whole not just the ISP’s I work for.
I took up a new role as Regulatory Manager just over 2 years ago where I now represent Zen as their ambassador within the industry and to government.
I'm an avid collector of Punk, Post Punk and New Wave related music and memorabilia hence my interest in online music and the issues associated with file sharing and similar. You'll sometimes see subtle and not so subtle references of this interest in some of my posts and online witterings ;-)
