Tom Savigar is a partner at The Future Laboratory and joined the business in 2005. He is director of the company's strategy and innovation projects and services. His recent clients include The Body Shop, Lamborghini, HSBC, Courvoisier, BMW, British Gas and Marks & Spencer. Tom frequently presents at conferences worldwide on subjects like the future of consumers, business, technology, media, marketing and retail.
Previously, Tom was co-founder of Sense Worldwide for six years, where we focused his trend insights on strategic projects for the likes of MTV, IDEO, Nokia, Hewlett Packard and SCJohnson.
For the past decade he has been tracking consumer trends and helping brands to anticipate the future. He has a particular passion for the emotional connection people form with brands, products, retailers and services, and how brands can better resonate with consumers accordingly. During this period, Tom has also taught fashion textile students at the University of Brighton how to identify and use trend insights in their designs. He is also on the assessment board for the Fashion Futures degree at the University of East London.
Tom is currently designing and planning his own home in Norway with his wife and new daughter (he's a very proud Dad indeed).
