SImpact?

Jade Tang-Taylor
Co-Founder

Jade brings a wide range of experience of Design, Community & Social Innovation space in Aotearoa New Zealand. As a Strategic Designer, Facilitator, Innovator, Collaborator & Educator, Jade is deeply passionate about Co-Designing Better Futures.

Jade’s career has been more of a squiggly line, than a straight line. Prior to joining ThinkPlace, Jade worked on a myriad of game-changing projects with change-making organisations. She was most recently Innovation Director at AcademyEX | Tech Futures Lab, and this particular social venture brings together the different strands, professional experiences and community and philanthropic sectors she’s worked with in the past.
