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.
Interim Executive Director for Health
Christina led Nesta’s work helping to develop and grow innovations that create new relationships, networks and technologies that improve health and well being.
Her areas of focus were Accelerating Ideas, Reimagining Help, Health by Design and social movements, citizen-led approaches to health data and technology, and collective intelligence in health.
Christina has worked in and around health and social care throughout her career - in policy, regulation and innovation. Most recently she was Head of Strategy at the Care Quality Commission. She has also worked in government, and in health care services in the UK and Australia.
We extend our impact through two specialised units that help people and organisations to solve complex problems and achieve their goals.
BIT helps clients from government, nonprofits and the private sector to improve people’s lives through our empirical problem solving and deep understanding of human behaviour.
Challenge Works designs and runs challenge prizes to spark innovation in science, technology and society.
