About the host
Blaise Grimes-Viort
CEO, Is The Answer
I consult with agencies and help them grow. I’ve developed successful and profitable services for multiple agencies, build remote and hybrid delivery teams on global client accounts, and been part of leadership teams with oversight across all agency functions. I love finding inspiration from outside the agency sector and working collaboratively in creating solutions to scaling challenges, as well as fuelling commercial progress.
