Richard delves into how Netcall’s innovative platforms empower businesses to meet the modern demands of digital transformation while creating a seamless experience for customers and employees alike. From his early days in web development to becoming a technology leader, Richard shares valuable insights on leadership, innovation, and the evolution of the tech landscape.


Here’s more about Richard Billington:


“I thrive on working with new technologies, many self-taught, and have proven my ability to define strategy, manage significant programs and lead teams. Throughout my career I have focused on web development and have over 20 years’ experience in this speciality.

If you’re a c-suite looking for technology to improve customer experience, fast, Liberty is where it all comes together. An all-in-one cx platform that includes all the low-code and contact centre solutions you need to make huge, transformational changes, fast.


Enter Liberty Create. A solution that has revolutionised the way we work, and our customers. I’m proud to have been involved in its development from the start. It’s a new breed of “low-code” tech that’s quick to learn, easy to use and requires less IT. You can configure and deploy new applications in days rather than months, without coding. And while we designed Create for business users, we didn’t skimp on tools for career developers. So there’s something for everyone across the business.


Don’t just take my word for it. I’ve worked with customers to successfully deliver many low-code and digital transformation projects. Companies like Vodafone, Nationwide Building Society, Thomas Cook, Department for Education, ITV, Network Rail and many others. And more recently we were named a “most significant platform in the Forrester Wave™ report: Low-Code Development Platforms for AD&D Pros, Q1 2019.


A self-confessed sports/festival and romcom nut, as CTO for Netcall I’m responsible for ensuring our solutions maintain their recognised industry-leading positions. I’m always interested to hear from other like-minded CTOs to share experiences that drive transformation, so get in touch. “


Company description: Our quick app development, smart automation, and user-friendly tools are a hit with business leaders and front-line teams. Seamlessly connect systems, break down data barriers, and make processes work better and faster – all on your own timeline.
