Designer and inventor Michael Omotosho shares his career journey – from a schoolkid trying to make headphones for his friends, to becoming a freelance industrial designer. In this talk he shares his passion for finding inclusive, functional solutions to problems that challenge everyday living. He is the designer, inventor and founder of Plugull, an electrical plug pull that makes it easier to remove plugs from sockets, designed to support independent living and help those with arthritis.
I really enjoyed these talks, and I don’t even work in education, so thanks for sharing them – I hope even more children on this programme gain confidence and skills to challenge conventional thinking.
