Phil Williams

As Head of Complex Systems at Innovate UK Business Connect, I lead a team of sector experts and scientists supporting the Space, Geospatial, Security & Defence industries, the enabling domains of Robotics, Autonomous Systems & Artificial Intelligence, and the underpinning scientific discipline of Industrial Mathematics.

I have over 15 years of R&D and project management experience, having worked in the Space, Telecoms, Automotive and Public Sectors, and hold Master’s degrees in Satellite Engineering and Intelligent Systems.

My team’s sector experts can use their deep expertise to help companies apply a systems thinking approach to both institutional and sectoral challenges, and use their powerful connections to help businesses find new strategic collaborations.
