December 14, 2023 AirWatch Christmas Special: Wolf of Wall Street
In this episode, I am joined by Dave Horton and Jamie Brown as we look back at our time working together at AirWatch. We discuss how workplace culture has evolved over the years, as a result of Brexit, the rise of technology and hybrid working.

AirWatch was founded in 2003 as Wandering Wi-Fi by John Marshall, who served as president and CEO. Ian Evans was the Managing Director for EMEA employing almost 250 people between 2011 and 2014 in Milton Keynes. AirWatch UK Limited was dissolved on 24 Apr 2018 with the company's final absorption into VMware as a business unit rather than a wholly-owned entity.

Dave Horton currently leads the Global Solutions Engineering for Odaseva. He is an experienced professional with 15 years in enterprise data protection, security engineering and solution architecture. Dave has consulted for the most complex and scalable organisations in the world.

Jamie Brown has a strong background in the technology industry, was one of the early starters with AirWatch, focusing on new business development and was pound for pound one of the most successful sales people at AirWatch. Since then, he has continued to excel in EUC sales, leveraging his expertise and passion for technology to drive success.
