Greg has built his expertise at the epicentre of strategy, technology, innovation, and sport. He is passionate about the power of diverse and empowered teams leveraging modern technology and data in innovative ways to fuel exponential growth and competitive advantage.  In his role leading Nike’s Digital Transformation, Greg is responsible for driving the most critical cross-functional strategic initiatives that power growth and transformation across the enterprise.

Greg went from the manager of a Gym to being an entrepreneur in the Green Technologies industry and the fashion footwear world (at the same time).Join in this conversation and hear some awesome advice for anyone who is wanting to be more entrepreneurial.
