PTI Digital, the specialist Digital Transformation and Technology consultancy, can announce today that its CEO Mike Bohndiek will be stepping down and leaving the business at the end of March to join Arsenal F.C. as its Technology Director.
PTI had a breakthrough year in 2022, onboarding and delivering against a diverse range of strategic briefs across Major Events Technology Delivery, Smart Venue Strategy, Digital Transformation, IT Managed Services, D2C Platform Delivery and Data-led Marketing Strategy, establishing PTI as Europe’s leading technology strategy consultancy in the sports and entertainment industry.
PTI will be led by its existing management team of Ben Wells, Daniel Brown, Michelle Tricker and Dan Smith, supported by Chairman Martin Griffiths.
Martin said “Mike can look back on the past five years with great pride on developing PTI from its first client in 2017, through to its growth and stability during and since the global pandemic. He leaves behind a strong company that continues to offer its clients a unique blend of strategic expertise and hands-on skills, further enabled recently by the launch of our IT Managed Services function.
The rest of the Leadership Team at PTI have industry leading knowledge and experience, providing a platform for the next exciting stage in the company’s journey”.
Mike Bohndiek says “It’s been my absolute privilege to lead the PTI team over the past five years and enable our clients to engage their customers, fans and partners in new and innovative ways. I’ve been fortunate to work alongside so many talented people and I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved together.
PTI is well placed to capitalise on the growing need for the sport and entertainment industry to take a strategic approach to digital and technology, and I am looking forward to watching its continuing growth whilst taking my learnings into a new and exciting role at Arsenal.”
