About Gavin Pretor-Pinney

Founder of The Cloud Appreciation Society
Science author transforming cloudspotting into creativity tool
Winner of Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books
Gavin Pretor-Pinney is a science author who transforms the simple act of cloudspotting into a powerful tool for unlocking creativity and innovation in business environments. His approach demonstrates how strategic mental breaks catalyze problem-solving.

As founder of The Cloud Appreciation Society with 38,000 members across 95 countries, Gavin has established himself as a leading authority on atmospheric phenomena. His contributions include naming the "Asperatus" cloud formation—the first addition to official cloud classification since 1951. His book "The Wavewatcher's Companion" won the prestigious Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books in 2011.

Gavin helps organizations break through creative barriers by teaching the counterintuitive skill of productive daydreaming. His methodology shows how deliberate mental defocusing creates space for innovative connections that remain inaccessible during intense concentration. This approach has particular relevance in today's hyper-connected workplace where constant digital engagement inhibits deeper thinking.

Audiences leave Gavin's presentations with practical techniques for incorporating strategic mental breaks into their workday, frameworks for recognizing when team creativity is being stifled by overwork, and methods for cultivating an organizational culture that values reflective thinking alongside productivity.

Book Gavin to discover why sometimes the most productive thing your team can do is pause and look up at the sky.
