In memory of Brian Riggs

By David Rossiter on Tuesday 17th July 2018 in AR, Obituaries, Ovum 0

We were very sad and shocked to hear the news that Brian Riggs of Ovum and No Jitter died this weekend in a swimming accident.

He was truly one of the best, and the analyst world is poorer without him.

Dave Michels of TalkingPointz has written a very lovely post about Brian which is very much worth reading if you knew him.

Our condolences go to his family, friends and colleagues. Rest in peace Sir.

About David Rossiter

I’m fascinated by industry analyst relations, corporate PR and the big policy and regulatory issues that are going to shape what happens in the technology and telecoms space. For over 10 years, I’ve been helping companies take advantage of analyst influence and insight so they can generate more business, gain a competitive edge and get better known, and understand the “big picture” dynamics of what’s happening in the technology and telecoms market I work in London for Harvard, the award-winning integrated communications agency (we also trade as Sunesis AR). I lead our industry analyst relations Centre of Excellence as well as providing broader industry insight, strategic messaging and influencer relations services to our clients. I’ve been closely involved with the IIAR (Institute of Industry Analyst Relations) since helping to found it in 2005.
