Matt Townsend


Executive Product Director
AKQA

A strategist, creator and digital leader, Matt is fascinated by how digital technology and human centred design can harmonise to create unique, effective brand experiences for New Zealand companies and its citizens with the creation of innovative digital service design. Matt is dedicated to helping brand leaders understand the impact their brands are having on society and the environment. A desire to better understand (positive and negative) outcomes created through digital influences how Matt considers the relationship between organisations, people and the environment. This influences how he sees and explores the world every day.
