Veronica"s career in information management began at the International Institute of Strategic Studies, followed by 11 years at the London Business School. Her interest in business information was first kindled whilst studying at City University for a postgraduate diploma in information science.
A sabbatical from the LBS enabled Veronica to start to understand how an investment bank uses business information - a year in New York at Goldman Sachs was a brilliant introduction. Two years at Bain, a US strategic management consultancy, gave her the chance to learn new skills in a stimulating environment in a severe recession.
