TICKETS FOR GOOD APPOINTS DON ORRIS AND WILL MILLS TO ADVISORY BOARD

Tickets for Good – a platform that provides free and heavily discounted tickets for major live events to NHS, charity sector workers and recipients of cost-of-living benefits – has appointed senior music industry executives Don Orris and Will Mills to its advisory board.

Earlier this year, Tickets for Good announced news of Robbie Williams and ie:ventures joining as one of its largest investors, adding to existing investors Bethnal Green Ventures and Comcast SportsTech. Business expansion followed with the launch of its nationwide Ticket Bank programme, for those in receipt of UK Government cost-of-living payments.

Orris (pictured left) previously served as Ticketmaster EVP and Live Nation core ticketing group SVP and brings with him some 17 years at the top level of the live music business. He joins the advisory board to increase the presence and inventory of Tickets For Good in the US as it plans expansion and launch in the territory following recent investment.

Mills (right), a former senior executive at Shazam and LyricFind has more than 20 years of experience building music and technology companies as an executive, advisor and investor at companies including Endlesss, Audoo and Musiio. At Tickets For Good, he will aim to strengthen the company’s partnership and commercial efforts as it closes its current £2m funding round this year.
