The author of Amazon bestseller The Social Media MBA, Christer Holloman, has been writing technology trend features for Sky News online the last three years, reaching over 7 million readers every month, and was previously the Head of Digital Product Development at The Times and The Sunday Times in London.

Holloman is a popular keynote speaker with audiences ranging from business students to C-level executives and is frequently hired for conferences and corporate events around the world by clients such as Microsoft, VISA and Ogilvy.

What makes him unique as a journalist and speaker is that he lives and breathes his topic as he regularly consults for major companies and tech start-ups on digital business development projects. That means he won’t be providing theories but instead up to date hands-on advice that will inspire readers and delegates.

Europe’s largest regional newspaper The Evening Standard named Holloman one of London’s most influential individuals within New Media. Christer Holloman is a member of the National Union of Journalists and holds a BSc in Business from the University of Umea, Sweden.
