Nick Churchouse

GM, People and Practice, Creative HQ

Nick has worked with 1000 startup founders doing everything from grassroots innovation to deep science to corporate domination. A former journalist, 80s dancer and startup spotter, Nick's experience revolves around a never-ending stream of ideas, innovations, inventions and promises of a brave new world (typically an exponential one).  Entrepreneurship in its countless guises is touted as the solution for every challenge from colonialism to climate change, and it’ll keep the economy ticking too. Nick will share stories, lessons and some crystal balling around how “innovation” can possibly deliver all the things we need.
