The Frontier Development Lab

Europe: 16 June to 8 August. USA: 23 June to 15 August.

During this time, I will be a little slow in responding. 2025 makes my 7th summer being the collaboration and communication coach for cross-functional teams making science magic to help humanity.

This unique science accelerator lab, created and nurtured by James Parr and the Trillium team, has 50 AI firsts, 75 AI pipelines, and an 80% success rate. (To put that into context - most AI innovation has an 80% fail rate. What makes us different is we have made collaboration into our 'magic sauce'.)

The Europe side focusses on Earth Systems Labs. Details are here.

The USA side focusses on the Sun. Details are here.

My job is to help instill and nurture our unique culture of improvisation. To help the individual researchers, cross-disciplinary teams, the faculty, and the whole programme to live the 7 C's.

These are: Community, Curiosity, Co-creation, Courage, Compassion, Complexity, and Comedy.

And at the end, I work closely with the Trillium design team to help each team share their breakthroughs with the world.

You can find previous showcases for the US and Europe here.

Can't wait to see what magic we make this summer!
