A specialist in design led innovation, Dr. Stuart English is Associate Professor at Northumbria University. As a member of the design school executive he has undertaken leadership roles as director of taught postgraduate, head of industrial design and director of enterprise and engagement and his research has contributed to all six of the University’s REF submissions (2021, 2013, 2008, 2001, 1996 and 1992). English’s work on relational problem framing has initiated new methods, new products and new IP through an inclusive approach based on design led entrepreneurship. This addresses multi and cross-disciplinary contexts bounded by clarity of market objectives, and has led to numerous new companies and filed patent in fields ranging from healthcare to packaging and exhibition systems. The concept of multiple perspective problem framing developed by English as part of a PhD by publication (2010) provides the foundation for the development of ongoing academic collaboration, new postgraduate curricula, intellectual property and commercial value for business both through contract research and CPD.
