Digital Media Expert
Tim Bradshaw was appointed as the Financial Times' first digital media correspondent three years ago, after several years of writing news and features on technology, business and investing. As a reporter for the FT in London, he covers a wide range of media, technology and marketing stories for the newspaper and the FT TechHub.
Musician-Performer
Marietta Fafouti was already 15 when she first laid her fingers on the piano. That first encounter was for her “love at first touch” and at the same time a big revelation as she found out that when she let her hands free on the piano, she could play every melody she had in mind. It was then that she began to write music.
