THE TEAM

FLORAMICHAEL LIZZIE

“Three great people, one great idea. What’s not to back?”Sophie Howarth (Founder of the School of Life)

“We definitely struggle with the lack of diversity.”Carrie Bishop (Future Gov)

“It’s a breath of fresh air to find out that companies such as yourselves are in operation.”Vicki Macgregor (Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners)

“This programme sounds really exciting. I’ve always found that design is quite an elitist profession and that not much was being done to democratise it more.”Noemi Mas (Engine)

“I feel that mentorship across the industry as a whole is incredibly poor.” Ian Bach (Industrial Designer)
