Colin Duffy, Voipfone

I spent 20 or so years in BT finishing as General Manager for all of BT's Consumer Internet & Multimedia Products and Services and in 1999 I did a management buy out of one of its unwanted media products and floated it on AIMS.

Prior to that I ran BT’s Financial and Telephony Services Division for all public switched telephony services for many years in the ‘90s (turnover £9,000m). This included regulatory modelling, pricing, unbundling and competition negotiations with OfTel (now Ofcom) and working group liaison and negotiation with ICSTIS (regulatory body for premium services). I was also the UK’s representative on the European Telephony Tariff Group for 5 years.

These days, I’m the CEO of iNet Telecom Ltd (Voipfone).
