Tom Dootson

Part of the Rising Stars 30 — a list of the UK's most talented young tech professionals in 2023

Now a business transformation analyst at Deloitte, Tom worked at Panasonic TOUGHBOOK as a student during his placement year.

He took to the role like a duck to water.

Later he headed up TOUGHBOOK's service and channel marketing, again slotting into the team perfectly, becoming a "mini expert" in his field.

"Tom will go far," his colleagues predicted.
