Dewi led the formation of Martin Dawes Systems in 1996 and has grown it into a strong business solutions company through organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Martin Dawes Systems now has operations in three continents and counts many world-leading communication service providers as its customers.

The company originally grew out of the IT division of Martin Dawes Telecommunications, then the leading European mobile virtual network operator, which was sold to BT in the 1990s. Dewi played a key role in establishing Martin Dawes Systems as a customer-focused company at the cutting edge of telecommunications and customer management software innovation.

Dewi first joined the Martin Dawes group in 1987 as finance director of Martin Dawes Telecommunications. In this role, he was closely involved in the development of the business from a small regional player into a pan-European operator with a subscriber base in excess of 1 million at the time of its sale. As a result of this experience Dewi has extensive knowledge of the operator business and thoroughly understands the challenges of the industry. This knowledge and expertise has proved crucial to Martin Dawes Systems’ current success.

Dewi led the acquisitions of Lavastorm Technologies and Visual Wireless to create a leading provider of business assurance solutions for the telecommunications sector, Martin Dawes Analytics, as well as targeting other market segments such as transportation and utilities.

Prior to joining the Martin Dawes Group, Dewi was a senior manager at the international accounting firm KPMG, where he was engaged in audit, advisory and corporate finance work providing services to a wide range of clients.
