24 Hours With… Alex Louey, co-founder and managing director, Appscore
24 Hours With… spotlights the working day of some of the most interesting people in Mumbrella’s world. Today we speak with Alex Louey, co-founder and managing director, Appscore.
5:30am: My mobile phone screen illuminates with a text message — it’s the company lawyer. I’ve asked him to check over a client’s contract for me that requires some amendments. His notes scribbled on it are in a barely-comprehensible drawl. Looks like I’ve been given my first task for the day.
I roll out of bed and get ready for work, the legal contract playing on my mind. I want to get onto it straight away. I spent some time working in sourcing and procurement for BHP, so I know a thing or two about contracts and legal business but it will chew up the morning.
After a quick kiss to my girlfriend Ana, I head out the door and drive to the office.
7.30am: I arrive at the office and have a quick look over my emails, making sure all the major day-to-day activities that come with being managing director are under control. I then put my paralegal hat on and finalise the contract. Just like with app development, contracts around app technology are always different depending on what we are building.
