Swift Media adds Peter Gibbons to board

Western Australian entrepreneur Peter Gibbons has joined the board of Swift Media Australia – a specialist out-of-home tech company focused on the mining and resources, residential aged-care, and health and wellbeing sectors – as an independent, non-executive director.

Gibbons is the co-founder and managing director of Openn Negotiation, an online auction site for real estate agents. He created Applord Technologies, and has also worked for Grant Samuel and Macquarie Bank.

Swift’s national CEO, Pippa Leary – who joined as chief executive last August – and Gibbons met attending the same college as students and have remained in touch throughout their careers.
