Martyn Sibley
Co founder/CEO, Purple Goat Agency and Disability Horizons
Martyn envisions a fully accessible and inclusive world. He believes digital storytelling holds the power in achieving that vision.
Having grown up with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Martyn achieved a master’s in marketing, and worked for a large non-governmental organisation (NGO) for inclusion of disabled people; social enterprise became his focus. Martyn started a lifestyle blog and co founded DisabilityHorizons, Accomable and Purple Goat, each achieving lots of sustainable social impact.
His website, Martynsibley.com, has led to mainstream media appearances, public speaking to thousands of people, and the opportunity to travel the world. Which inspired the memoir Everything is Possible. Disability Horizons is a community magazine by disabled people for disabled people. Accomable supported disabled travellers and was acquired by Airbnb. Purple Goat is an influencer marketing agency connecting brands to the 1.3bn disabled people in the world.
“Dream big, understand your barriers, plan the way forward, be flexible, keep going and always have fun. Everything truly is possible when you believe.”
