ABOUT US

Our history

Alight was co-founded by Matthew Dearden and Dave Huckerby (pictured above). Both Matthew and Dave have a strong background in OOH. Dave had worked in the industry for over 30 years and Matthew was previously President of Clear Channel Europe, one of the biggest OOH companies in the world.

Alight began as a self-funded, bootstrap operation, powered by Matthew and Dave's vision to deliver incremental audiences through a values-driven, talented team.

Our strategy of developing inclusive OOH across the UK, not just London and major cities, has seen our national audience reach over half of UK adults.
