Formerly news editor with global media brand Monocle, Peter headed up its daily output and commissioned across the company's flagship magazine and weekly papers. Prior to that Peter worked at business think tank The Future Laboratory, running a research team designed to analyse how consumer behaviours translate to market opportunities for some of the world's biggest brands. Peter studied English Literature and Sociology at the University of Brighton and took a postgraduate diploma at the London School of Journalism. Stephan Sigrist is the founder and director of the think tank W.I.R.E.
