Launched our paper on Public Value of Art & Culture this week at #WorldDesignCongress. Brian Eno, UCL IIPP Board Member, also spoke about "scenius", collective creativity emerging from vibrant cultural ecosystems. A core idea in our paper captures why we must invest in entire arts ecosystems.
Gossip on the street is that yesterday’s Brian Eno & Tori Tsui discussion at #worlddesigncongress which addressed the genocide in Palestine ruffled the feathers of the government sponsors of the event ✊🇵🇸

Had a wonderful discussion with our counterparts at the Latvian Innovation Lab this week. So interesting to hear about how other countries are bringing design into government! Hopefully a precursor of the conversations we’ll be having at #worlddesigncongress next year!
