“Global connector driving growth, trust, and impact across tech, health, energy & climate.”
𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐢𝐬𝐡 is a prominent London-based connector, business leader and entrepreneur who helps CEOs, founders and boards unlock growth by creating the right strategic relationships.
Working across technology, health, energy, climate and GovTech, he positions himself as “The Connector Catalyst,” focusing on turning conversations into tangible outcomes.
Rather than offering traditional consultancy, he leverages decades of experience and a global network to bring together innovators, investors, policymakers and operators - helping organisations gain clarity, access and momentum.
His philosophy centres on visibility paired with credibility, and on the belief that many stalled businesses don’t have a strategy problem, but a connection problem.
He is Chair and Co-Founder of Scottish Business Network, a global, business community supporting Scottish and Scotland-connected businesses with international growth.
He also founded Net Zero Nation to help SMEs measure and reduce carbon emissions, and serves as Entrepreneur in Residence at the University of Glasgow and The Open University.
An author of The Ask and a TEDx speaker, Russell advocates for the power of storytelling, consistency and trust in leadership, using his platforms and newsletter to encourage purposeful networking that drives long-term opportunity and impact.
