Richard Titus

CEO, Halo Three

As a tech-native executive with a passion for disruptive innovation, I’ve had the privilege of launching two of the world’s largest digital agencies—Razorfish & Schematic. I’ve led a range of technology and media businesses, from start-ups to global giants, including Samsung where I was one of the most senior non-native “board room” executives.

My expertise spans AI, DeFi, machine learning, SpaceTech (as a founding member of the Space & blockchain streams at the Creative Destruction Lab), and NeuroTech. My notable achievements include leading the digital transformation of Great Britain’s leading media organizations—the BBC and Associated Northcliffe (Daily Mail)—successfully balancing growth and profitability.

A significant part of my career has been devoted to turning firms into prolific, profitable, and award-winning industry leaders. A key strategy has been the introduction of scaled design thinking and consumer experience as critical competencies for businesses across engineering, financial services, media, and technology enterprises.

The foundation of my success lies in the teams I lead. I believe in cultivating dynamic cultures that promote diversity and inclusion, with a particular focus on women and other minorities in leadership roles. I’m committed to creating environments that reward success and view failure as a springboard for learning.
