Hugh, who founded Oxford Computer Group in Oxford, England, in 1983, has lived and breathed IT for almost 40 years in technical, management, and board-level roles. In 2002 Hugh decided to focus Oxford Computer Group’s activities entirely on identity and access management. Currently, he is passionate about SoftwareIDM’s Identity Panel Suite, MIM, Microsoft Entra ID, and Microsoft Entra Connect.

He can communicate as effectively in the classroom and conference hall as he can in the boardroom or one-to-one. Hugh has been described as “a guy that everyone just wants to be around.” The loyalty of his staff and colleagues over four decades bears this out.
