Simon Gittings

Simon leads the IR and Corporate Communications practice at IDX, where he helps listed companies understand how technology, data and digital channels shape investor perception and decision-making. With more than 20 years’ experience advising global and FTSE 100 organisations, Simon specialises in translating complex corporate narratives into clear, discoverable and credible communications.

As AI increasingly influences how investors and analysts source, analyse and interpret information, Simon works with IR teams to assess how their disclosures perform in algorithm-driven environments, from search and data platforms to generative AI tools. His approach combines technical insight with a strong focus on clarity, consistency and integrity, helping companies remain visible and trusted without losing authenticity.

Simon is a regular industry speaker and advocate for insight-led communications, with a particular interest in how IR teams can anticipate investor questions, manage narratives proactively and stay ahead as AI reshapes the investment landscape.
