Tim Malbon

Tim joined the internet in 1998 at the height of the dotcom boom, lured by the dual promises of untold wealth and societal re-invention. He’d previously worked at the brand experience design specialists In Real Life as part of Campaign’s ‘Agency of the Decade’ HHCL & Partners, and before that in stand-up comedy and theatre. Immediately before Made by Many he worked at early-doors new media shop Interesource incubating start-ups and helping enterprise-scale businesses like London Stock Exchange, The Daily Telegraph, Lloyd’s of London, BBC and Honda to bring digital inside and make what were called ‘internet applications’ at the time. (i.e. making new stuff - tools, products and services - out of the internet).  In 2007 Tim launched Made by Many with some buddies - mainly because there was nowhere else in London to go in 2007 if you didn’t want to make digital advertising campaigns. Made by Many set out to “make new stuff out of the Internet” and challenge the Web 1.0 digital agency. The Day One vision was about smashing open-source and agile software development together into interaction design and business strategy to create a new model to close the gap between strategy, design and execution: “consultants who make”.   Tim became CEO in 2020. He lives in London with his wife and two sons.
