Luke Courtenay-Smith

I've spent 15 years in leadership roles for high-growth startups. The gap between now and next is closing.Brands that start thinking like innovators now and operate at the forefront of change will define the once-in-a-generation opportunities that are coming next. I'm currently MD @ Flight3 (part of FlightGroup), the UK's most well-known and impactful Web3 marketing agency. Clients include Coinbase, Solana, Fabric Ventures, Optimism & more. Before Flight3, I was the Managing Director of Bolt Digital, the UK's leading D2C digital agency, running a team of 40+ across creative & performance. During the boom of Fintech, I was COO of Droplet, a financial technology company that scaled across 8 cities in the UK and raised over £2million+ in investment. I am a mentor for the Creative Mentor Network, a charity that supports diversity and inclusion in the creative industries. In another life, I was also featured in Vogue as part of David Bailey's 'People Set to Define the Next Decade'
