Ben Garner (1998)
VP & Regional General Manager (UK Region) for 2U, an EdTech company
I create and scale strategic partnerships in complex, disrupted industries - primarily focused on education and sports.
Over 15+ years I have signed and successfully delivered multiple long-term partnerships with world leading brands including University of Oxford, LSE and The Economist. I currently lead the UK region of a multi-product EdTech business with annual revenue of £60m, and total student enrolments exceeding 200,000.
I have experience working in the US and UK, as well as leading teams in start-ups and large multinational public companies. I am currently accountable for the work of matrix teams (including product, marketing, enrolment, technology, compliance) with employees across three continents.
I also bring a unique and broad perspective on the sports industry as a former professional squash player who is now an Independent Non-Executive Director at British Eventing, driving digital transformation.
