Prior + Partners’ Director, Simon Mattinson, will be a featured speaker at the first in a series of Show and Tell webinars hosted by the Digital Planning Directory. Taking place on 18 September 2025, the event will focus on ‘Utilising Data for Better Planning Outcomes’ and bring together leading voices in digital planning and data innovation.
Alongside fellow industry experts, Simon will present an overview of the Planning Positively for the Future report, sharing the practice’s experience in utilising public datasets for strategic planning.
The webinar will open with updates from the UK Government’s Digital Planning team and the MHCLG Planning Data Platform, before moving into case studies from a range of practitioners registered across the Digital Planning Directory. Simon’s participation reflects Prior + Partners’ ongoing commitment to advancing data-led approaches that support positive, collaborative, and future-ready planning.
The event offers a unique opportunity to explore how digital tools are reshaping the planning system, enabling planners, local authorities, and communities to work together more effectively to deliver better outcomes. You can sign up for the free event here.
