Geoff Gower

Geoff graduated with a degree in Business and Management from the heavily double-glazed University of Salford in 1997 – the year that we met Dolly the Sheep and the WinNuke source code got Microsoft hot under the collar. With the arrogance of youth and the appearance of middle age, Geoff started his own digital agency and somehow managed to create a client list that included Shell and the BBC. Eventually, he got found out and sidled into the creative department at Digital Outlook, where he conceived stuff for clients Filmfour, Game and Activision. Following a brief non-digital blip developing TV formats at Talkback – such as Jimmy Carr’s ‘Distraction’ – Geoff returned to the interactive bosom working on the Orange account for Fullsix alongside Poke, before joining archibald ingall stretton... in 2004. No one in the agency is quite sure what Geoff actually does, but his official title is ‘Digital Creative Director’ and he has been partly responsible for some nice award wins – including Cannes, One Show and Creative Circle.
