In 1998 Penny founded Ecademy, the UK’s first social network for business, with her husband Thomas. Ecademy is now a global operation with members in over 200 countries. Underpinning the network’s success is the powerful feeling of being part of a community and the strong intention that each member has towards supporting one another.
Penny’s unique contribution to the world of social networking is that she has created a hugely successful network herself. She is the public face and voice of online networking. This has given her an insight into the power of social capital as an asset for all to create.
Penny is also no stranger to the media spotlight. She is a regular contributor and commentator on Social Networking and business and regularly speaks at conferences and events across the globe.
Her latest book, Know Me, Like Me, Follow Me is an exceptional help to anyone wanting to learn how to future-proof themselves and their businesses.
