— Background

A quiet operator behind a portfolio of digital companies.

I'm Shajid — a founder, operator, and investor. Over the last several years I've built and run a portfolio of digital ventures across marketing, hosting, IT services, and SaaS. Some, like SparkX Digital, are agency businesses serving clients globally. Others — HostPico, Ovinobo IT, Bornona Media — are infrastructure or product businesses serving thousands of customers.

My base is London. The work spans the UK and South Asia, with consulting engagements focused on founders entering the UK market, scaling beyond founder-led growth, or shipping production-grade products through SparkX Digital.

I was recognised internationally as APAC CEO of the Year in 2024 and 2025, featured among the 10 Elite CEOs in Asia, and nominated for the International Children's Peace Prize for early entrepreneurial impact.

Open to consulting, advisory, and partnership conversations — particularly for international founders looking to enter or scale in the UK.

— What I work on

Three layers, one system.

01

Operate

Running a portfolio of digital companies day-to-day — marketing, hosting, IT, SaaS, media. Each business stands alone, but they reinforce each other through distribution, infrastructure, and audience.

02

Consult

Working directly with a small number of founders each quarter. Consulting on positioning, growth, UK market entry, and scaling beyond founder-led ops. Selected for fit, depth, and the chance to ship something real.

03

Invest

Backing early-stage operators with capital, advisory, and ecosystem access. Particularly interested in digital infrastructure, agency businesses, and SaaS with strong unit economics.

— Recognition

Internationally recognised work.

Selected awards and features across entrepreneurship and industry leadership.

— Vision

Where this is heading.

Make digital infrastructure accessible to founders, everywhere.

The long-term work is about lowering the cost and complexity of building digital businesses — so more founders, in more places, can ship without needing to be infrastructure experts first.
