“[A] neighbourhood-scale approach to innovation and technology diffusion, that starts with building stronger relationships between people, can inspire a culture shift across the UK that makes innovation work for everyone.”
As everyone's becoming an expert on Nvidia stock prices and moats and Jevons paradox, I've got a new Green Paper out on inclusive innovation, social capital, and technology diffusion - three things that literally no one is talking about! www.careful.industries/inclusive-in...

I just finished shortlisting 215 applications for the NHS App Lead Product Manager role.

My back hurts. My eyes hurt. My brain hurts. But here are some things I noticed plus some tips in case you ever want to apply for a role like this in future.

Do ‘re-watch clubs’ exist?

Like a book club but to re-watch a talk and then chat about it after?

I have so many interesting events/sessions on my to watch list where I missed the live session.

But I need accountability to view them and people to chat to about them afterward…

🚨Geeky research klaxon🚨

Am extremely pleased to see HM Treasury publish their 'areas of research interest'. Have seen other departments do this but can't remember HMT doing it before 👏🏼

Lots in there but am very excited for the public service reform areas - transformational and place based 🙌🏻

Bit of a long short, but at Design for Planet last week I was talking to someone who mentioned schools being used as points to distribute food i.e. schools being zero waste shops for families to top up on essentials.

Does this exist? Am I dreaming?
