Founder and Managing Director, ABFL As a pioneer for e-mail in the pre-PC 70's David Brunnen initiated Telecom Gold - the UK's first nationwide and international e-mail service. In the 1980's his new ventures for BT included an advanced serviced office business, Network Nine, an audio-conferencing service, Rendezvous, and EDI*Net following the acquisition of Tymnet in 1989. He was founder and Commodore of the BT Offshore Sailing Club and instigated the Teamwork programme for the Fastnet races in 87, 89, 91 and 93. This programme led to BT's sponsorship of the BT Global Challenge with Global Teamwork and Team Spirit. In 1992 his company launched the annual awards for innovations in e-commerce in order to produce case study material to assist potential users (and suppliers) in identifying significant business developments using combinative technologies. This awards programme evolved to become eBusiness Innovations and, in 2001, comprised three international programmes. Its success has led to many invitations to write and speak on topics such as Business Development, Knowledge Management, Supply Chain anagement, eBusiness strategy and Collaborative Advantage. His knowledge of and track record in eBusiness marketing, channel management, web-enabled customer and supplier community management is widely appreciated.
