In 2011, whilst working for full time for an engineering company, I was fed up with working for someone else.
So I setup a website thecadmonkey.co.uk and advertised on gumtree and paid for SEO on Google. Within a few months, I had multiple small clients ranging from M&E companies to stage lighting companies. To deal with the growth, I then rebranded as www.outsourcecad.co.uk and employed 6 CAD technicians. In 2012, I won a project with the Wood Group for marking up 1600 drawings for BP Oil, Turkey for over £100k over 5 months which I hired 5 people for.

In early 2015, I started Blue Clarity after seeing an opportunity for an end to end of acquisition, design and survey to the Telecoms Sector.
The company has grown to over 70 staff in the UK and over 30 CAD technicians in India turning over £4 million in 2019.
We work throughout the UK and Ireland to build partners of many blue chip companies offering complete package from surveying, design, acquisition and planning to detailed design and construction.

I am also involved in various ecommerce brands, mainly in print on demand and our own products.

I have also started to tech startups which I am currently developing

Lastly, in 2019, we started Pod Park and Spaark. Pod Park offer office, retail and leisure pods using up cycled used shipping containers to be able to create a unique business centre that can offer an affordable solution for both existing and start-up businesses. Our Mentor programme will offer our guidance and support from concept to expansion, giving direction in all areas of business. Pod Park is not just about providing an exciting environment with which to work in, but more about providing the right environment to be successful.

We have secured a deal with Tesco to roll out in their car parks providing retail, leisure and office space
