Welcome To RAD
We are a new, small team within BBC Future Media and Technology.
RAD works on near term prototypes, products and services. We're part of a wider group encompassing Mobile, Audio and Music, and are based in London, W1.
RAD completed recruitment and opened its doors in November 2008. We have a remit which stretches across all digital platforms and content areas, trying to help shape the BBC's thinking, encourage liaison with longer term research and release code and output which delivers new ways of tackling problems like distribution for AV content, service discovery, UI and UX for new platforms, and much more.
