Mr. Boyd was a Co‐founder of St Banks International Group, a Shanghai‐based boutique investor.

On his appointment to the board of TV2U, Mr. Boyd said, “I’ll confess I was more than a little surprised when I saw TV2U’s media platform. It’s very comprehensive – a complete package – and I know of clients all over the world looking for exactly this. “The media space is going through some very rapid transitions with many new types of media such as virtual, augmented and mixed reality coming online over the next year. Meanwhile, the old‐fashioned TV set is going through massive changes with 4K and even 8K devices coming online. New business models and distribution channels are disrupting the old ways of doing things and opening massive new global opportunities. There was never a better time to be involved in new media as today and TV2U is perfectly placed to take advantage”.
