Henry Lawson is a seasoned business leader, engineer and investor with 13 years of documented experience driving digital transformation across media, retail, financial services and telecoms and now focused on the Net Zero Transition. As chairman and managing partner, he has helped create and scale companies that collectively generated over $1bn in EV growth by leveraging SaaS, cloud, AI and data science to convert legacy trading and business systems into high-margin digital models. He co-founded and led privacy-focused autoGraph to a strong IP position, helped build the media industry's first unicorn at Donovan Data Systems, and has a deep track record of sourcing capital from US VCs to European private investors. Now steering ventures in decarbonising heavy transport and industrial sectors (PragmaCharge, EcoPragma), he blends engineering roots (Cambridge MA) and strategic finance (Harvard MBA, Baker Scholar) to back commercially pragmatic sustainability solutions. An interesting through-line: he often invents business models ahead of their buzzwords, turning technical digitisation into durable commercial advantage.
