Chris Williamson
A chartered RIBA member, holding an MSc in Project Management. Chris also gained an MA in Urban Design in 1995 and is a member of the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI).'''
In 1999 to 2001 he was Chair of the Architecture Centre and then the Ambassador for Business Skills from 2015 to 2017. More recently he was our Vice President International in 2017 to 2019, responsible for setting a strategy to grow into a global membership institution and to encourage more UK architects to seek work globally.'
"As a profession, we have the potential to turn these challenges into opportunities: to design more sustainably, to welcome and support the next generation of architects, and to shape a more inclusive, future-facing profession that works for the benefit of all of us.
In my career I owe RIBA so much since being selected with Andrew Weston in the 1985 '40 under 40' exhibition and winning RIBA administered competitions. I want to help a new generation of architects by creating the conditions to thrive which I believe will benefit the whole profession."
