The Big Ideas Collective


Unlike traditional agencies, we do not sit in resource hungry bricks and mortar buildings.

We are an experienced team of marketing and publishing consultants working from our own studios within a BIG virtual hub.

We work together in the most effective way to deliver what you need.

We collaborate and benefit from the best professional acumen and creativity to suit your brief and budget, whilst always looking for sustainable methods of print and production and innovative management of resources.

All adding up to great ideas and campaigns for you at an appreciably lighter burden on the planet and your marketing budget.

In recent years Ned and Jacky have spoken and run workshops at four TEDx events, delivered seminars at literary festivals and within universities, colleges and schools.

Jacky spoke at TEDx Pocklington in 2015 on the main stage and Ned has run creativity workshops at TEDx VitoriaGastiez in 2016, 2017 and 2018.

We have also spoken and been on conference panels at various events with York St John University and Leeds Beckett Business School.

Ned also contributed to the Goldman Sachs 10k small business programme speaking on the good business module for three cohorts of students.
