E103: Jeremy Dale: From Oprah to Otro

This week’s guest is Jeremy Dale, one of the original co-founders of the OTRO the football media platform, who has had a marketing career working for some of the world’s most famous companies. He was former VP of Worldwide retail for Microsoft, won a BAFTA for the launch of Pokemon and led Motorola’s Product (RED) Campaign in collaboration with Oprah and Bono, the latter of whom he claims gave him the inspiration for his new book, The Punk Rock of Business. Jeremy was listed in Total Films 100 Most Influential People in the Movies (between Tom Cruise and Matt Damon), not bad for someone who started as an accountant for Tarmac.
