For our first edition we will be joined by Professor Jon Rogers. Jon holds a personal chair in creative technology at the University of Dundee. His work explores the human intersection between digital technologies and the design of physical of things. He balances playful technologies with citizenship to find new ways to connect people to each other and to their data. Jon also founded the Product Research Studio located in the North East of Scotland in 2009 and is proud to have worked with some of the world’s best organizations, including BBC R&D, Microsoft, Mozilla, NASA, the Met Office and the Victoria and Albert Museum. With academic collaborations that include MIT Media Labs in the US and the National Institute of Design in India Jon is excited about how easy the world is to reach and to connect to. Currently Jon is conducting a year-long research in collaboration with the Mozilla Foundation, building the Open IoT Studio.
