Guy Pearson is the Co-founder and Executive Chairman of Ignition, the leading revenue-generation platform for accounting and professional services businesses. Born and raised in Australia, Guy graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Commerce (Accounting), becoming a Chartered Accountant shortly after.
Before co-founding Ignition in 2013, Guy started a progressive accounting firm, Scendar (previously Interactive Accounting). He realized that there was a significant gap in the market for a platform that could help businesses better engage with their clients and streamline their operations.
With this in mind, Guy and his co-founder, Dane Thomas set out to create Ignition, a platform that automates and optimizes proposals, billing, payments, and workflows in one place.
Guy remains committed to his roots and giving back to the community. He is actively involved in various charitable organizations and initiatives and is a frequent speaker at industry events and conferences, also investing in the industry that backed Ignition in the early days and paying it forward.
When Guy is not doing the above, you'll find him at a brewery/winery, near a body of water, or with family and friends having a good time.
