The Founder

David Timms

David is a founder, strategic connector and trusted advisor to influential leaders, investors and family offices worldwide.


He operates at the intersection of capital, brand and influence — having built a carefully cultivated international ecosystem spanning sport, entertainment, corporate enterprise and the luxury sector.


With more than eighteen years of senior leadership experience, including roles at Chelsea Football Club and Coca-Cola, David developed a deep understanding of how enduring enterprise value is created. He has built a reputation for identifying asymmetric opportunities, structuring high-value partnerships, and scaling ventures with discipline and foresight.


Today, as a founder and advisor, he aligns exceptional people with exceptional opportunities — acting not as an intermediary, but as a long-term strategic partner.


His work is intentionally selective and relationship-led. He partners with private individuals seeking proprietary access, intelligent structuring, and discreet introduction to high-quality opportunities across sectors and jurisdictions. Acting as both architect and steward, he prioritises generational value creation over transactional gain.


David currently serves in several strategic capacities, including:

- Board Member of the Growth Steering Committee at BritishAmerican Business - the leading Transatlantic Trade association between the UK and US.

- Senior Partner: Private Clients at Exclusively Connect- the UK’s premier collaborative marketing community for luxury brands and affluent individuals.

- Ambassador for The Mayfair Collective - a leading, private client group of trusted advisors.

- Vice Chairman of Stadium Experience- a not-for-profit marketing collaboration of over 70 key sporting Clubs and Stadia across the UK.


David also serves as an Ambassador for Mind - the UK’s leading mental health charity. Championing greater awareness, open dialogue and improved access to mental health support. His commitment is deeply held and long-standing, rooted in the belief that leadership carries responsibility beyond commercial success. He believes that wealth, influence and enterprise find their highest expression when directed toward meaningful social impact.


Discretion is foundational. Alignment is deliberate. Execution is disciplined. His reputation is built not on visibility, but on trusted counsel — and on relationships and structures designed to endure across generations.
