John Band is a London-raised, Sydney-based strategy consultant, marketing analyst and writer. He has experience ranging from blue chips to start-ups across the media, business information and consulting industries.
He has given presentations to leading industry groups and corporate audiences, and has been interviewed by media sources including the Economist, the BBC, the Financial Times and the Telegraph, usually on retail and consumer marketing.
In his personal capacity, John writes about the interplay between data and politics for Liberal Conspiracy, as well as blogging about more or less everything at Banditry and the now-defunct Sharpener. He also likes strange pieces of technology, good food and wine, and travelling to out-of-the-way places — ideally all combined.
