Founder + Managing Director
vvast
Richie has experienced both client-side, brand-side and agency life across multiple sectors. Having spent the majority of his career to date being just in front of the curve, he is now in the sweet spot having found his niche. Launching vvast has allowed Richie to blend his agency experience and brand expertise to deliver an innovative, low-capital entry to market for brands, but crucially plugging them into a relentless R&D tech roadmap to accelerate revenue growth.
Embarking on our B Corp journey has been particularly meaningful for Richie, as it aligns perfectly with his purpose for vvast. Achieving B Corp certification is about far more than environmental impact – it’s about considering our contribution to the wider community and understanding the way we do business through an ethical lens. This certification underscores Richie’s commitment to leading vvast towards a sustainable and equitable future.
He is passionate about building better business through the lens of creative destruction and feels genuinely privileged to have seen the inception and gradual impact of ‘the internet’ on society and brands. Richie builds teams with a shared love of brand; a stoke for surfing, mountain biking, and music; and a drive to deliver epic work, every day.
