Nick Corston

Wired magazine and The Guardian newspaper have described Nick as a ‘man on a mission’.

He has been listed at one of the top 100 global edtech leaders by the influential Hot Topic group and was recently nominated for a TED Fellowship by both Sir Ken Robinson and Professor Sugata Mitra whose top ten TED talks inspired his work.

Now a well-known advocate for creativity in education, business and society, Nick is digital pioneer having started his first shop in 1990. He sold one to Omnicom and has worked across the brand comms spectrum and run innovation and design agencies.

He holds a Master’s Degree in Electronic Engineering from Loughborough University, but says he’s “just a dad” who is concerned about our children’s and all our futures.

His life and career trajectories were changed forever by becoming a father, Sir Ken Robinson’s TED talk on creativity in education, reading half a book on education and coming across a bunch of creatives in a field at a festival.
