Colin Bennett is MD of abannan, the digital publisher who’s digitisation of reading matter enables publishers to effortlessly optimise their content to offer a higher quality, slicker experience, within a 24/7 global network. The unique software offers publishers the opportunity to optimise return by introducing new revenue streams through targeted advertising; and offers advertisers highly targeted, high ROI campaigns through new routes to audience.

Colin was MD of Shorewood EPC Europe Ltd from 2000 – 2009 and witnessed first-hand how the digital revolution and the advent of iTunes transformed the music industry and its suppliers.

In 2009 Colin retired and began to travel around Europe in order to find a property to buy, however, in Italy he bought an iPad, got inspired, and returned to the UK to form the plan for abannan.

Like all good start-ups, abannan began around a kitchen table, moved swiftly to a bar stool, and is currently expanding onto a great deal more sensible seats at offices in London, South Wales, Birmingham and Swindon.
