Gavin Cooney

As CEO and co-founder of Learnosity, Gav still talks about the company he helped build over a decade ago with an infectious zeal. It’s easy to see why: what began as a project in a garden shed (a cliché maybe, but 100% true!) has matured into an internationally renowned tech company with a 200-strong crew of problem-solvers. Since Gav believes that all social ills can be remedied through education, his modus operandi is pretty simple: give education the standard of technology it deserves. In a nutshell: Big-hearted adventurer and big-picture thinker. Chatterbox. Perennial optimist. Things he likes: Karaoke, drone piloting, live gigs … and karaoke.
