Mr David Dutton BA

I am an alumnus of Cambridge University and graduated with a BA in Economics from Churchill College. I subsequently achieved an MBA from Harvard University, graduating Summa cum laude. On leaving Harvard I started my own company, a pizza restaurant chain, Pizzaland, which was sold out for a substantial consideration to a major public food company in 1978. I was the Founder (in 1978) and Chairman of a small property company, grown and subsequently taken to the AIM market, and sold to a major property company in 1989. Since that time I have been involved as a “hands on” business angel in a number of small company start ups whilst concomitantly working as Executive Group Property Director for The Daily Mail and General Trust (DMGT), a major UK media company, Chairman of DMG Information, a major division of DMGT concentrating on the provision of Business to Business electronic information through a number of subsidiary companies, principally in the US. I finally acted as a Non-Executive Director for a number of other subsidiaries of DMGT. Elsewhere I am a Past President of the Harvard Business School Club of London, Past Honorary Treasurer of the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine (part of London University) and I am an Honorary Fellow of University College of London. I was also Founder and Chairman of UCLB PLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of UCL, charged with the commercial exploitation of IP innovations arising from research emanating from Royal Free University College School of Medicine. I am a Member of the Board of the Møller Conference Centre.
