I've obtained my BSc in Computer Engineering from Kocaeli University in Turkey and currently studying MSc Human-Computer Interaction in Tallinn University where I work on brain-computer interfaces. Started to work as an ios developer for five years, I'm a big fan of hackathons and code competitions which I quite often participate and win prizes. If I'm not busy with coding probably, I spend my time flying with my racing drone or doing fun projects with brain-computer interfaces.

​

I believe good work can be accomplished only with different professions and minds come together as we do in Helpific, people from more than seven different culture get together, and we come up with ideas and products.

Jon Pitts had spent much of his working life in the social care field but over the last 10 years he has been working in social enterprise and social businesses to help people with a learning disability move closer or into work.

​

Whilst still running a traditional day service for local government he set up a social firm ice-cream parlour and tea room. He then co-developed, with Geof Cox, a new model of social enterprise. miEnterprise uses a marketing co-operative & mutual model to support micro businesses run by learning disabled adults. These are all food businesses with people making high quality products at their own pace. This is based in Herefordshire in the west of England.

 

This model has been taken up by another group - this time young adults with Aspergers who are running micro businesses in web site development and discussions are under way with a group of families to set up a family led group in Scotland.

Jon also works with a local school creating work experience for young people with a learning disability.

​

He is a trustee/director on two local community owned businesses - a village shop and a community hub in an historic building.
