David Jones

David Jones is best known as the founder of Brandtech Group, which he launched in 2015 with the mission of helping brands do marketing better, faster and cheaper using technology. Under his leadership, Brandtech has grown into one of the world's largest and fastest-growing digital marketing groups, assembling a portfolio of technology-driven marketing businesses and becoming a significant force in the industry's shift toward AI-powered marketing solutions. Before founding Brandtech, Jones had one of the most prominent careers in traditional advertising. He rose to become Global CEO of Havas, one of the world's six largest advertising and communications groups, and was also CEO of Euro RSCG Worldwide (now Havas Worldwide). His tenure at Havas made him one of the youngest CEOs of a global advertising network. He is also known as a vocal advocate for purpose-driven business, authoring the book 'Who Cares Wins' which argued that doing good is good for business. Jones has been a consistent voice on the transformation of the marketing industry, championing the move from traditional agency models toward technology-first approaches. Brandtech's rapid growth — backed by General Atlantic — and its acquisitions of companies including Jellyfish have reinforced his reputation as one of the most consequential entrepreneur-operators in modern marketing.
