He has led global innovation programmes — from building Time Out’s AI Lab with 240+ use cases and the global roll-out of real estate digital twins across 12 markets, to co-creating City Analytics with AECOM and Homes England to predict housing and planning needs. Drawing on MIT frameworks like Algorithmic Business Thinking and Design Thinking, David blends creativity, data, and commercial rigour to turn ideas into scalable impact — embedding innovation cultures that connect people, place, and technology for measurable social and economic value.
