About Nesta

Nesta is a research and innovation foundation. We apply our deep expertise in applied methods to design, test and scale solutions to some of the biggest challenges of our time, working across the innovation lifecycle.

Methods in action is Nesta’s event series exploring how applied research and innovation methods can help tackle society’s biggest challenges.

Organised into themed seasons, the series brings together experts in research and innovation methods to share candid lessons from live projects led by Nesta and our partners. It will explore how approaches such as data science, artificial intelligence, experimentation and participatory research can be used for social good.

By examining what worked, what did not and what was learned along the way, speakers move beyond theory and hype to offer practical insights that others can apply.

Join us to learn from practitioners, examine promising approaches and build connections with others working to achieve social impact.
