Though tail-less cats and three-legged men inspire mystique, the Isle of Man's financial history is an intriguing reality.
Deprived of intrinsic raw materials, but fortified by 'herrin and spuds' (sea fish and potatoes), Manxmen chose international trade for independent survival.
Manx ships carried the Pilgrim Fathers and helped break the American blockade!
For a time, the Isle was decried as a smugglers' haunt. In 1661 official records show 'a nest of smucklers who glory in their treasons.' Even the local Bishop, in 1742, declared 'the iniquitous trade will hinder the blessing of God from falling upon us.'
As a former senior executive for a global publishing and information technology company headquartered in the USA, he has contributed to numerous client-facing procurement and outsourcing initiatives worldwide.
Ian has created and participated in numerous small businesses in the UK, Isle of Man and elsewhere.
He has also represented the Isle of Man Government Department for Enterprise in several of its business support schemes
Ian designed and delivered extensive training for its Micro Business Grant Scheme.
In recognition of his long-term service to the Department, Ian was nominated for The Queen's Award for Enterprise Promotion and awarded an official Certificate of Recognition in 2018.
