Timothy Armoo’s Biography:

Timothy Armoo is an entrepreneur and global keynote speaker who helped redefine the influencer marketing landscape. As the Founder and CEO of Fanbytes, Timothy built one of the world’s most influential Gen Z marketing agencies, leading campaigns for brands such as Nike, Samsung and the UK Government. His most renowned milestone is the multi eight figure acquisition of Fanbytes by Brainlabs, a deal that positioned him as a leading figure in modern media and brand engagement.

Timothy’s entrepreneurial drive began early. At fourteen he launched Alpha Tutoring, a small venture that grew to 65 tutors within weeks and sparked his passion for building businesses. At seventeen he founded EntrepreneurXpress, a digital publication he later sold in a six figure deal after interviewing figures like Alan Sugar and Richard Branson. While studying Computer Science at Warwick University, he immersed himself in entrepreneurial life through the Warwick Internship Programme and the Warwick Women in Entrepreneurship Conference, experiences that shaped his approach to innovation and leadership. During this time he also gained industry exposure through the Venture Academy at McKinsey and Company and hands-on work in business development at Bar Pass Limited, learning how teams function inside fast growing start-ups.

At twenty one Timothy co-founded Fanbytes, a company that grew from a university project into a global marketing force of more than 70 employees. Under his leadership, Fanbytes pioneered influencer campaigns across emerging platforms, including early viral activations on Snapchat and TikTok. His achievements earned him significant recognition, including Forbes 30 Under 30, Huffington Post Entrepreneur of the Year, and listings by The Times and the Evening Standard as one of the most influential people in media. In 2025 he added to his portfolio with the release of his debut book ‘What’s Stopping You?’, published by Penguin as a major upcoming title, sharing lessons that helped him escape self-doubt and build companies worth tens of millions. A clear example of his impact is Fanbytes’ TikTok campaigns that helped consumer brands reach millions of young audiences at a time when traditional marketing struggled to keep pace.
