In the former role, ex-UBS CTO Correy Voo will lead the technology group at Modulous, building the software platform. And ex-Canary Wharf Group head of design Chris Hartiss will lead on creating solutions that “help streamline design processes to deliver high-quality, energy-efficient homes, at scale and pace, without compromising on architectural integrity”, Modulous said.
