Leadership
Entrepreneur, Investor and Director of Alpha Digital Group
James Dooley is a co-founder and director of Alpha Digital Group, which acquires, invests in and grows websites, online businesses and other digital assets.
James Dooley is an entrepreneur and investor. Alongside Karl Hudson, he co-founded Alpha Digital Group to acquire and develop digital assets where investment, search expertise and operational experience can create long-term value.
His interests centre on digital businesses: how they generate demand, how they can be improved, and how they can be combined to build something larger and more resilient.
James has been involved in building and investing in businesses across a number of sectors, with a particular interest in companies where digital marketing and online visibility play a central role in growth.
That experience informs how Alpha Digital Group assesses opportunities: looking closely at the fundamentals of an asset, the durability of its position and the practical steps required to develop it.
Lead generation is one of James's core areas of interest. He understands how well-positioned websites generate enquiries for service businesses and how those enquiries create value for the businesses that receive them.
This perspective is central to Alpha Digital Group's interest in lead-generation websites and portfolios, particularly in valuable service industries and local markets.
As a director of Alpha Digital Group, James is involved in the group's direction, its acquisition activity and the development of the assets it owns.
Together with Karl Hudson, he brings a combination of business, investment and search experience to every opportunity the group considers. Read more about Alpha Digital Group and our approach.
