Phil Winfield

Former CEO, We The Curious

Phil's first career was in industrial research and development, product design and development and marketing in polymer technology as European R&D Director for a US multinational. This gave him a detailed understanding of the skills needs of industry and extensive business experience. Phil's science communication career started in November 2002 when he became Director of INTECH Science Centre & Planetarium (now Winchester Science Centre); then in 2012 he joined At-Bristol Science Centre as Chief Executive. The combination of his industrial background and experience leading small and large science centres has given Phil a breadth of understanding of the needs and challenges of the sector as well as the exciting opportunities and initiatives available to us all.
