Geoffrey ReadyNavicarta’s Managing Director, Geoffrey Ready, is an Ontario native who returned to the province after spending 12 years managing Avec Solutions in Belfast, Northern Ireland, a flagship social enterprise delivering a range of IT and internet services to UK charities and small and medium-sized organisations.

Geoffrey has extensive IT and internet consultancy, web design and training experience, with particular expertise in open source content management systems and CSS-based design, and has himself developed more than 150 open source CMS-based websites built on the Drupal, Joomla and Wordpress platforms. Apart from his technical expertise, his strength is in working closely with a client organisation to ensure the website fulfils its strategic goals.

Under Geoffrey’s leadership, Navicarta is committed to working alongside small companies and charities to help them to achieve their goals and move to self-sustainability, rather than becoming increasingly dependent on external consultancy and support.
