Biography

edit

Greg was born in Bedford, England but grew up in Johannesburg, South Africa from the age of four. In 1979, his father, at the time a foreign correspondent with Reuters, was transferred to the company's sub-Saharan Africa bureau. Greg attended school and university in South Africa and also completed his military service as a junior officer in the South African navy between 1992 and 1996...[1]

Career

edit

After discharging from the navy, Greg began work as an advertising sales executive for National Publishing. This sparked a career in journalism, media and publishing that would span more than twenty years, culminating in his acquisition of the IHS (NYSE:IHS) media and property assets in South Africa and the formation of Infixion Media (Pty) Ltd in 2009. Greg ultimately sold Infixion Media's publishing interests to Naspers-controlled Media24 (JSE:NPN) in 2014. He then reorganized Infixion Asset Holdings (Pty) Ltd into a small Private Equity firm with a primary focus investing into start-ups and small businesses within South Africa, holding varying interests and ownership in diverse entities in sectors including publishing; digital media; marketing and advertising; investment banking; retail apparel; sports marketing; and mainstream media. In 2019, Infixion Asset Holdings (UK) Ltd was established, representing the company’s first investments in the United Kingdom after purchasing a minority stake in a boutique investment bank and a financial advisory firm. He has held various CEO positions at companies for over fifteen years and served as a non-executive director on various company Boards in South Africa and the United Kingdom. He also served as Principal Officer of a corporate pension fund and sat on the Employment Equity/Diversity committee of IHS South Africa. The action thriller Subterfuge (ISBN 978 1 80016 836 7) was his first work of fiction. [2]
