About Disruptive Technology Channels (http://www.disruptivegroup.com)
Disruptive Technology Channels is a UK-based distributor of consumer electronics products and digital accessories. The company was formed in early 2004 by Tom Dudderidge, a veteran of technology sales and marketing and an experienced team at both management and board level.
In April 2004, Disruptive launched PodGear, which quickly became Europe’s number one iPod accessory brand. By the end of 2005 PodGear was stocked in many of the UK’s leading high street retailers: Dixons, HMV, Toys R US, Boots and Carphone Warehouse and had a strong web presence with retailers such as Amazon.co.uk. In recognition of the exception growth the company had witnessed, it was awarded the HSBC Start Up Stars award in October 2005.
In January 2006 Disruptive took the bold move of moving from the name PodGear to the name GEAR4. The name change enabled other digital accessories to be sold along side the massively successful iPod collection, all under the same brand name.
