Summary
Kieran Goodacre is a product leader and entrepreneur with 11 years of experience building and scaling digital products across streaming, healthcare, and SaaS. He led growth and monetisation at DAZN—launching freemium advertising, global PPV that drove hundreds of millions in revenue, and an entitlements platform—and more recently is transforming Sciensus into a digital-first patient engagement business. A founder who bootstrapped ReferralHero to an exit and grew it to £15k MRR without paid marketing, he combines hands-on startup grit with enterprise product leadership. He specialises in experimentation-led growth, lean development, and turning user research into measurable commercial and health outcomes. Unusually, his background ranges from subsea engineering to shipping a no-code referral product built in a weekend, giving him a practical systems mindset alongside product and growth expertise.
