Phillips has more than 35 years of experience within the B2B/B2C media and events industry as an operator, CEO and M&A specialist. Since joining IDG in 2020, he has led the product development, strategy and growth of both IDC and Foundry’s events businesses. This includes the complete rebuilding of the company’s events product portfolio during COVID, its current position of sustained 15% annualized growth and the establishment of a new series of major tech events in more than 35 countries.
