Davenport Technology Services was formed in May 2007 by Chris Davenport.

Chris has almost 30-years experience in the Information Technology field and has extensive experience of software development on a diverse range of platforms and at all levels from assembler to 4th-generation languages.  He has been involved in projects for major clients including Royal Life, Bristol & West and British Rail.

He became interested in open source software in the mid-1990's and now hardly ever uses proprietary software.

He was invited to join the Core Team for the Joomla!™ project in November 2006.
He is currently on the Joomla Leadership Team (which superseded the Core Team) and is a member of the Joomla Production Working Group with responsibility for documentation.

He holds a BSc (Hons) degree in Mathematics.
