It’s been a pleasure working with Nick on our smart-living research. Nick brought energy and insight to our workshops, facilitating a range of interactive techniques. It was essential that participants took a future oriented perspective of the research challenge and Nick was able to foster this through expertly framing the discussion and interaction. This has helped immensely with the quality of the workshop outputs and ultimately the final report and findings.
