Tony Fish, who has been recognised by the Observer as one of the UK's top ten rising stars in the field of science and innovation, feels his Bradford MBA helped provide him with his extensive range of business skills.
Tony, aged 40, completed his MBA in 1993. He is now CEO of leading consulting company AMF Ventures; chairman of software development company, dotnet solutions, and youth-orientated mobile service company, dotmobile; and non-executive director of youth-orientated media agency, CCG plc, time and navigation company, Chronos Technology, systems integrator, Hartwood Services; and mobile applications development company, wordlink plc.
"I perceived that an MBA was the basic requirement for senior management of the future and I chose Bradford to study because I wanted a one-year full-time programme at a top UK business school," Tony explained.
"I gained a breadth of skills and disciplines from the programme which has subsequently given me an appreciation of all business functions and inter-operability.
"Since completing my MBA, I have built and floated one of the first Internet companies; founded and sold several Internet and mobile companies; advised on the privatisation of Telecom SA; purchased cable companies and integrated operations; been the Director of BT's mergers and acquisitions arm; the global head of wireless for a $550m venture fund; written two books on mobile and Internet services; become a Fellow of CIM and IET; become a chartered engineer; and gained the accolade of being in the top ten rising stars for science and innovation in the UK, as nominated by the Observer.
"To potential MBA students at Bradford I would say, 'Network, network, network'."
