him a wealth of experience that will impact across the business. He
is a hugely significant addition and it is great that we are

a formidable senior management team to embark with me on the next
stage of Brave Bison's development."
Jon Kitchen commented: "As an owner, producer and distributor of
content, Brave Bison holds a unique position within the social

impossible to turn down."
