Tim Malbon is a founding partner of Made by Many, a digital product innovation and strategy company based in London and New York. Made by Many has created websites and interactive experiences for ITV, Burberry and Universal as well as not-for-profits and start-ups and in the past five years, it has designed several innovative products for education, from Skype in the Classroom – a platform allowing teachers to connect pupils with other classes, experts and explorers around the world – to School in the Cloud, a collaboration with TED Prize winner Sugata Mitra, which enables students to learn with minimal supervision from educators using ‘self-organised online learning environments’.
Last year, the company developed Hackaball, a responsive ball that can be used to teach children basic coding and computer skills which raised over $200,000 of funding on Kickstarter.
Malbon is also the UK ambassador for the Webby Awards, an executive member of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences and an advisory board member at Boulder Digital Works, a digital training program for graduates run by the University of Colorado.
