Alex Dollery

Alex has been innovating and programming in web 2.0 since 2003. His career began with a fascination with web bots, personalised and semantic search engines, and intelligent directories with simple UI's.

He later moved onto Property and Investment technology, where he used a debenture to find consumers cheap solar power products. The debenture was just a little before the modern fashion of online coupon buying.

Shorty afterwards he moved onto innovate music and developed a system to help consumers and staff efficiently communicate inside a nightclub using mobile devices. Alex still has personal projects that focus on giving independent musicians a fair chance in the industry against mainstream music giants.

Alex is very extensively studied in Ruby-on-Rails and Javascript, which is the main inspiration behind the innovation, finding possibilities in a programmers world that only programmers can spot.

Director of Projects and Vocational Training - Accura-Tech Technologies

Lynda Thain
Director of Projects and Vocational Training

Lynda Thain is a London-bred, New York-trained, personal presentation consultant working with senior executives across a variety of sectors. She is as comfortable working with teams in an organisation as she is working on a one-to-one basis with individuals; coaching and developing them to express themselves and their organisation consciously and with impact.

She does this through a variety of means, drawing on her knowledge of voice production, with its focus on posture and breath control, as well as her training as an image consultant.

Lynda is a British national with more than 20 years’ experience in marketing and training. She was one of the pioneers of interactive media in the UK as part of Philips’ Interactive Media Europe (PIME), as well as the creator of bespoke training seminars and development programmes for media professionals in top-tier companies.

After years singing chorally, Lynda trained as a soloist, studying privately with the dramatic soprano Jacqueline Straubinger-Bremar and the baritone David Crown for a period of more than 12 years.

In that time she learnt a great deal about voice production and many other aspects of solo performance. Her artistic ability and eye for colour was enhanced by the training she received in New York as an image consultant, enabling her to transfer to others what she had been applying to herself for years.

Lynda still performs regularly in concerts in the UK, and from time to time in Greece where she lived for three years. She speaks Greek and French, as well as basic Spanish and German. However, she is happy to sing in any of those languages as well as Italian. She is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and Manufacture and is a former committee member for the south east region of the UK. She has been a member of the Musicians’ Union for more than ten years.
