“Like a force of nature, the digital age cannot be denied or stopped. It has four very powerful qualities that will result in its ultimate triumph: decentralising, globalising, harmonising and empowering.”

“The technology is in everyone’s pocket today. But that doesn’t necessarily mean they always know what to do with it beyond its commercial application. My role is to open up the creative process and share it with people, and to unlock their imaginations.”
