Speaker suggestion: Fergus Kelly of The Mayo News

[Heather James]

I mentioned this guy today. I haven't recommended any speakers as of late... but I'd really really like to leave a spot open to see if this man would like to come and speak. (He's away on hols for the next week)

Fergus Kelly spear-headed the redesign of The Mayo News, which has won major design awards, been featured in various places and has their increased circulation.

This is such a strong story about how design has helped their company. It would fit into any of the three streams.

It's also a story about how they changed their work practices, really revamped it all.

This isn't a start up, but they re-started. I think it would be great to hear from them.

He also set up their Twitter accounts (multiple!)
