Powell, who is described as a genius in his field by clients and peers, started in computing when he was eleven. He joined ECC soon after its launch in 1989 to drive its technical strategy.

A challenge was to transition a few multi-talented individuals to a larger team of more vertically skilled individuals.

ECC specialises in building knowledge-management solutions for clients including Intelligent Finance, Bodycote Materials Testing and Dawn Group Construction.

A keen motorsport fan, his all-time sporting heroes are the late Ayrton Senna and Joey Dunlop.

Best Advice:
"If you've got more going out than you have coming in, you're in trouble."
