Ederyn Williams, born September 21, 1946, is an academic, commentator, and writer. His published work focuses on Social Presence Theory and Technology Transfer.

Early life and education

Williams is the son of the Welsh academic and television critic Raymond Williams. He was privately educated at the Cambridgeshire High School for Boys, and subsequently attended his father's old college of Trinity College, Cambridge, where he graduated with a BA Natural Sciences in 1968. He later received a DPhil in Psychology from the University of Oxford.

Career

Ederyn Williams was a research assistant in psychology at University College London, Cambridge University and Johns Hopkins University. He then joined British Telecom where he managed businesses in information technology. Dr. Williams was briefly the head of the short-lived games company, Telecomsoft, in the early 1980s.

From 1991 Williams was the Managing Director of Leeds Innovations Ltd. In April 2000, Dr. Williams joined the University of Warwick where he founded an academic department which later became Warwick Ventures Ltd, which branded itself as a technology commercialisation company. Its activities were claimed by Williams to have been adversely affected by the Financial crisis of 2007–08. In April 2010, Williams was awarded the Queen's Award for Enterprise Promotion for his role in the development of knowledge transfer from universities to business in the UK. Dr. Williams retired from Warwick Ventures in September 2011.
