John Webster, Chairman, Manx Technology Group

22/01/2025 Posted by Sharon Sutton Podcast

This week’s Island Influencers podcast features John Webster, Chairman of Manx Technology Group.

From his early days growing up near Liverpool and spending summers on the Isle of Man, to becoming an accomplished economist, entrepreneur, and leader in both public and private sectors.

John has been a key figure in shaping the Isle of Man’s economic landscape. During the 1970s and 1980s, he played a crucial role in establishing the island’s finance sector, laying the groundwork for its modern-day success.

Transitioning to the private sector, John co-founded prominent businesses, including Web Tech and the Manx Technology Group, while continuing to make significant contributions to the community through his involvement with the Island Games Association and the Chamber of Commerce.

John’s philosophy and business insights bring a practical and motivational edge to this episode. He shares his perspectives on the Isle of Man’s future, how he stays grounded, and his vision for quality-driven progress.

With a mix of wisdom, humour, and a deep love for the Isle of Man, John’s perspective is as thought-provoking as it is inspiring.

Join us for episode 122 of Island Influencers as we delve into the life and career of John Webster.
