Jeremy Simon Hall (born 27 January 1965) is a British businessman and chairman of Who's Who Publications Plc.[1]

Wyse Leasing

Hall founded Wyse Leasing in 1989,[2] a computer leasing company. Originally based out of Chesham, Wyse Leasing grew into a £65m turnover company, employing 75 people and based out of eight offices (Chesham, Tunbridge Wells, Northampton, Sheffield, Taunton, Edinburgh, Dublin, Daventry) in the UK and Ireland.[3]

Hall and his business partner, Wayne Fowkes sold Wyse Leasing plc to Integrity Software Inc, a NASDAQ quoted IT company, in 1998.[4] He joined the board of the company, which in June 2000 had a stock market valuation of $150m. He later bought the company back in 2000.

Wyse Leasing (North) Limited was sold to a private investor and the management team in November 2006.[5] The rest of Wyse Leasing was merged into one company in 2007 and later sold to CHG Meridian, a 700m euro German IT leasing company in July 2009.[6][7]

Who's Who

Hall is currently chairman of Who's Who Publications Plc[8] (sometimes mistaken for the book Who's Who published since 1849 by A & C Black), a non-executive director of Manchester-based mergers and acquisitions firm Frazer Hall[9] and CEO of asset finance organisation WestWon Ltd.[10]
