Living Life Like It’s Global With Ashley Veasey

11 Nov

On this week’s episode of African Tech Conversations, I chat with a globe-trotting Brit who has spent the last 20 years working in retail, investment and corporate banking in no less than four continents.

Before Ashley Veasey’s current gig as Chief Information Officer at Barclays Africa Group, he served in senior leadership positions at corporate giants like Citi Group and JP Morgan. Prior to joining Barclays, however, Ashley worked for Standard Chartered Bank as CIO in Singapore, Thailand and Hong Kong, where he made a name for himself as somewhat of a disruptive technologies maverick.

Nowadays, Ashley enjoys travelling, and has an inexplicable passion for Italian motorbikes. Listen in to find out what the man literally has under his skin.
