Professional Bio
Experiences excite me. Things don’t. Life can take you to surprising places. And sometimes, when you look back, you can’t help but think, “How did I get here from there?”
For a CEO of a global tech company, Tony himself certainly has unlikely origins: he grew up on a farm in rural Australia – four hours from the nearest major city.
Though his career has taken him far from his childhood home, the seeds of his entrepreneurial aspirations were surely planted there. “Farmers are the original entrepreneurs and the ultimate optimists,” Tony says. That’s what thrills Tony about technology – it comes from a spirit of pure optimism. Even from the unlikeliest beginnings can come endless possibilities.
When Tony started at Nokia, it was a small Finnish company better known as a manufacturer of rubber boots and toilet paper. Tony went on to lead teams that were responsible for the launch of no fewer than 27 products, also designing and co- designing some of Nokia’s most iconic products, including the world’s first smartphone the Nokia 9000 series Communicator.
Later at Microsoft, Tony oversaw Marketing Communications, Product Marketing, Channel Marketing, Interactive and Public Relations. He led teams that orchestrated the launches of Xbox 360TM, Windows VistaTM and Microsoft OfficeTM
across Asia. As Head of Marketing for Xbox, he pulled off some of the most talked-about PR stunts seen in the gaming industry.
Moving from there to building three successful start-up businesses, Tony was later named a Global Top 100 Sustainability Leader in 2012 for his pioneering work with The Climate Realty Project and Global Initiatives.
Now as Co Founder & CEO of Qnnect, Tony’s mission is advocating for a new way of working, enabled by Qnnect’s innovative mobile communications technology.
About Qnnect
Co-Founded in 2012 by Zurich based Dr Rene Muller and New York based Australian, Tony Boatman, Qnnect is a mobile first secure communications app engineered specifically for the mobile workforce, providing a meeting place to work together in real time, while exchanging important information to help keep business flowing, sales teams informed, and individuals engaged and feeling that their contributions are being recognised.
Qnnect has customers in 23 ountries and has developed strong positions in Switzerland, the U.K., France, Italy, Germany, Singapore, Netherlands, Brazil and the United States.
