About

Alan Glass founded his first software and services venture, Tikit Ltd, in 1994. Serving the top-tier legal market, the company achieved rapid global growth driven by client success, a strong team culture, and high-quality delivery. Tikit later floated on AIM in 2001 and was acquired by BT for £64m in 2012.

Drawing on this valuable firsthand experience of the startup journey – including its significant challenges and common pitfalls like cash flow issues and market fit – Alan now helps ambitious software and services companies navigate their own growth paths. He provides tailored planning, funding, and project services designed to reduce risk and improve the chances of success.

While acknowledging that success is not guaranteed, Alan leverages lessons learned from both triumphs and setbacks over decades of involvement with various businesses. In today's rapidly evolving tech landscape, including the rise of AI, Alan remains focused on the enduring need for credible growth plans and effective funding strategies.

The support provided to clients is always collaborative and leverages other specialist resources when and if needed.  If you lead or fund an ambitious software or services business and seek experienced support, get in touch to discuss your specific needs.
