We have two speakers at this evening’s event covering pop-ups and placemaking. Our first speaker is Melissa Woolford from Nous Collaborative which focuses on the development of architecture in the areas of branding, marketing, design strategy and place-making. In her presentation this evening, Melissa will speak about the use of pop-ups in placemaking using examples from some of her projects as case studies.

Our second speaker is Simon Pitkeathley from Camden Town Unlimited (Camden’s Business Improvement District). Again the theme is place-making as Camden has been successful in implementing a renowned pop up shop programme which has transformed Camden Town’s vacant premises into creative platforms.
Our chair is Martin Sagar, Chairman of the BCO Urban Group and Head of Masterplanning at Sheppard Robson.
