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.
Editorial Manager
As editorial manager, Mary was responsible for telling Nesta’s story through blogs, op-eds, and other editorial content.
Mary is passionate about storytelling and the power of words to effect change. A writer and trained journalist, her background spans health, technology, women’s advocacy, human rights and international development.
Mary started her career as a communicator for a particle accelerator and has since written for media, publishing houses, NGOs, start-ups, international foundations and government. In November 2019, her first book - An Illustrated History of Science - was published.
Outside of work, she loves snowboarding, travelling, and exploring the countryside with her intrepid cat, Binx.
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.
Join our mailing list to receive the Nesta Edit, our regular newsletter showcasing how we design, test and scale solutions to some of society's biggest challenges, with updates from Nesta, BIT, Challenge Works and the wider innovation sector.
