Chris Hole

Prior to joining TTP Chris spent 12 years in the wireless communications industry designing equipment for wireless basestations and in system design and technical marketing roles. He started in a small start-up business which grew and was acquired by a large multinational giving him first hand experience of the growth and maturity phases of a businesses’ life. At the same time the wireless industry was transforming from a small, innovation lead, industry into a large, mature, market. These twin changes have provided a useful perspective from which to help low carbon companies grow and develop in this vital new industry. 

Before joining the wireless industry Chris worked as a post doctoral researcher in a Japanese government laboratory and in the scientific instrumentation industry developing equipment for the low temperature physics community.
