We’re thrilled to announce that four members of the Remarkable team have had their Optimizely Most Valuable Professional (OMVP) status renewed for 2026: Issy Stephen, Robert McGovern, Riann Smith and Matthew Dunn.
And in even bigger news — Robert McGovern has been upgraded to Gold OMVP!
The OMVP programme recognises practitioners who go above and beyond in contributing to the Optimizely community, through thought leadership, technical innovation, peer mentorship, and sustained engagement with the Optimizely ecosystem. Renewal isn’t automatic; it reflects continued impact and community contribution year after year.
Having four OMVPs in-house is a rare distinction, and Rob’s Gold upgrade places him among an even more select group globally. Together, Matt, Issy, Rob, and Riann represent an exceptional depth of expertise across optimisation, experimentation, and digital experience — and their OMVP status is independent recognition of the real-world impact they’re delivering for clients.
This renewal builds on the momentum from last year, when Rob and Riann were first named Silver Strategy OMVPs and joined Matt, our Optimizely Practice Lead, who holds Platinum status. Remarkable is now home to some of the most decorated Optimizely talent in the UK.
When you work with Remarkable on your Optimizely programme, you’re working with a team that doesn’t just use the platform — they shape how it’s used across the industry. Our OMVPs bring hands-on experience from some of the most complex and ambitious Optimizely programmes in the market, and they’re constantly feeding the latest thinking back into the work they do for clients.
Whether you’re looking to accelerate your experimentation programme, improve your content lifecycle management, or get more from your Optimizely investment, we’d love to talk.
