About James Turner

Building on over 30 years experience in business development and technology, I have interests in a portfolio of innovative IT&T businesses with a specialisation in advanced voice solutions. These business include Qtec Systems which provides Unified Communications solutions designed around Microsoft Teams and Coloured Lines which is a specialist VoIP telecommunications business. Also recently co-founded Cape Bionics - the next generation of fully bespoke compression wear garments for elite athletes derived from our space industry expertise.For my passion about endangered species conservation and environmentalism, I am involved in the exciting development of new DNAtesting technology to democratise access to the essential tools for species tracking. And to get hands on in community based conservation, I sit on the board of Pangje which is working on snow leopard conservation through the Nepalese villages and educating the next generation of conservationists.
