Henry is an experienced founder and CEO, and is based in Gloucester MA, just north of Boston.

Born in Dublin, Ireland, he founded his first technology company there which rapidly grew across the UK, Europe and the Middle East, eventually being sold to Widepoint Inc ( NYSE:WYY)

After a break to complete his MBA, Henry worked as CEO of Dublin-based VHI Swiftcare, a network of healthcare clinics and a subsidiary of VHI Healthcare, the largest Healthcare company in Ireland. Henry then became a Co-founder and CEO at Bluechip Technologies UK Ltd to launch one of the first lone-working safety companies worldwide.
Following the sale of Bluechip Technologies Ltd, Henry moved to US in 2015 and subsequently established Bluechip Technologies Inc, which is better known as GuardianMPS. Along with original co-founders Paul Donnelly and Vidette Humphries (Head of Customer Support), Henry shares over 60 years of experience in the lone worker industry and enjoys bringing the GuardianMPS solution to the millions of US employees who work alone.

In his free time, Henry enjoys walking, spending time at home and sailing with friends off the coast of Gloucester MA. He travels frequently to Ireland and Sweden to visit his children and 4 grandsons.
