A Pure Knight - In Conversation with Paul Connell

Author: Ian McDonald

When you meet Paul Connell, you quickly come to realise that this is a man who thrives in his profession and enjoys the cut and thrust of the telecommunications industry. But telecoms is a far cry from his days in print and packaging and the story of his transition is an interesting one. Sitting in a comfortable leather chair in Pure Telecom’s new offices in Dublin 18, with the steady buzz of a busy office in the background, a fluid and informative conversation begins. And, whereas this would have been scheduled as a journalistic interview, Paul’s relaxed manner quickly made it into a casual chat over coffee.
