A key part of my role is bringing our clients ideas to life and help answer the question “is there a better way?” Essentially I do this by working with Logica’s great people, our innovation ecosystem or a combination of both.

I discovered a user-experience design agency with a different take on things, the Olympic 2012 mobile app designers, a natural language processing company that does the whole cross-language semantic piece.
