About Me

Michael Guthrie Mandalay

A career spent making complex digital projects land.

I started in digital in the mid-1990s, pioneering early internet advertising in New York before co-founding a design and build agency whose clients included American Express and Condé Nast. Since then the through-line has been the same: taking ambitious digital projects — archives, journals, eCommerce platforms, transformation programmes — and making them real.

Along the way I have built the World Health Organization’s institutional repository, led a national digitisation project for the Royal Navy’s museums, founded and ran a SaaS platform for academic publishing for a decade, and managed delivery for agencies and nonprofits across the UK. Today I work with organisations on strategy, delivery, and the practical adoption of AI in their workflows.
