Matthew Skinner

I am a local government innovator with a passion for challenging the status quo, experimenting with public service design and using technology, social media and the internet to problem solve, network and develop my ideas.

I'm changing public services using new digital technologies at FutureGov by re-designing them based on users needs. I believe in bottom up change in government supported by leadership that creates the space for experimentation and prototyping. Government needs to be open by default and transparent, it needs to work with citizens to design new solutions to complex problems.

I enjoy: travelling and discovering new cities and places, networking and hanging out with friends, playing on my ipad/mac/iphone/gadgets and generally being a geek.
