The Royals founder / strategy partner Dave King steps down to focus on his AI start-up Move 37

The Royals, Melbourne founder and strategy partner Dave King has stepped back from day-to-day involvement in the agency to focus on his AI start-up, Move 37.

King, who will remain as non-executive director, founded The Royals in 2010. The following year he was joined by creative partner Nick Cummins and managing partners Stephen O’Farrell and Andrew Siwka.

Says Cummins: ”Dave has played a big part in The Royals success to date. Thankfully, he’s not leaving us completely but will focus the majority of his time on another business opportunity – Move 37. 

“Dave will continue to have a stake in the business and a role as a non-exec director so we shall still benefit from Dave’s immense understanding of technology, his well-articulated political points of view and especially his in-depth knowledge of ancient Chinese vases.”
