Risk 2015 – new speakers announced

London-based architect, writer and educator Jeremy Till and CEO of the Grattan Institute, John Daley, are the latest speakers to be joining us in May for the National Architecture Conference – Risk.

Jeremy Till is Head of Central Saint Martins and Pro Vice-Chancellor of University of the Arts London. His teaching and research concentrates on the social and political aspects of architecture and spatial production.

Jeremy’s extensive written work includes Flexible Housing (with Tatjana Schneider, 2007), Architecture Depends (2009) and Spatial Agency (with Nishat Awan and Tatjana Schneider, 2011). All three of these won the RIBA President’s Award for Outstanding Research, an unprecedented sequence of success in this prestigious prize.

John Daley has 25 years’ experience spanning policy, academic, government and corporate roles. His work has focused on economic and budgetary reform. He is particularly interested in government prioritisation. John will be involved in the joint session with the Planning Institute of Australia Intersection, Planning + Architecture: Lost in Transition. More details on this session will be available soon.

The dedicated Risk website is now live and includes information on the initial speaker line up, themes of the conference, information on accommodation, as well as registration information.
