Magazine and Content Strategy examples:
Below is a portfolio of longer-form outputs I’ve written and delivered for different projects – BLING, Like!, and for Smart Cities.
Introducing the Blockchain Book
In April 2023 BLING published ‘The Blockchain Book – how Blockchain is Enabling the Next Generation of Government Services’. This brings together 24 pilots, proof of concepts, and use cases that show how blockchain-enabled solutions will change how local and regional governments deliver local services and how they work with citizens.
From the largest government blockchain service in the Netherlands to new ways to help people in financial difficulties, this book provides a range of examples of new ways to design and deliver local government services for communities and citizens that cross many service areas, including health, energy, and transportation.
Throughout the Blockchain in Government project local government partners have delivered real services in real life governmental settings: they have also delivered over 40 many new pilots, proof of concepts and use cases that show how this innovative technology can be used in many different ways and in many different domains. Whether you are a seasoned government professional or new to the field, this book is an excellent opportunity to learn what blockchain can do for your organization and how to tackle the challenges that lie ahead.

Blockchain and Government in Europe
In February 2021 we published BLING’s latest magazine – Blockchain and Government in Europe. This 84 page magazine brings together 11 interviews and 8 new blockchain use-cases to explore the state of Blockchain in Government in Europe. See how transnational initiatives like the European Blockchain Services Infrastructure (EBSI) fit in with local, regional, and national blockchain developments, pilots, and proof of concepts.
Creating Customer Contact Centres
I wrote the Smart Cities report on ‘Creating Customer Contact Centres‘. This guide explained how cities could build customer contact centres, as part of a broader shift in channel and service delivery strategies. The guide brought together case studies and learning from 7 partners as they worked to adopt the ‘Answer Model’ of service centre design.
Content Strategy and Writing – The Like! Magazines – Making innovation accessible
Interreg projects usually finish with a fairly dry, technical, private report for the funder which summarises the project’s activities and achievements and which is never seen again. For Like! we decided to produce a series of thematic magazines that brought together the Like! project’s pilots and learning in an accessible form that would be widely distributed and which could be re-used/re-purposed in a range of different formats. You can find out more about our approach in the Learning from Like! Content Strategy case study.
Smart Cities – a content strategy to build an innovation library
For Smart Cities we produced a mix of case studies (which I either wrote or commissioned), plus resources and research briefings.
I worked with external experts and commissioned writers to produce a comprehensive library of accessible, focused material that provided in-depth introduction to the key Smart Cities themes.
Our aim was to provide a comprehensive content library which included detailed case studies and options for organisations looking to adopt new ways of working.
You can find out more about our approach in the Smart Cities Content Strategy case study and in the Making academic research accessible – the Smart City Academic Network approach case study.
