Keynote topic

Geopolitics keynote speaker Matthew Griffin

Matthew Griffin is a geopolitics keynote speaker who explains how shifting global power, trade, security and energy are reshaping the world, and what that means for business and government. His keynotes turn complex geopolitics into clear implications and decisions for leaders.

The world is moving from one dominant power to many, and every organisation feels it, through supply chains, energy prices, regulation, technology controls and security. Matthew connects geopolitics with technology and economics so audiences understand not just what is happening, but how it affects their markets and plans.

He has spoken on geopolitics, trust and global transition at events including the Wall Street Journal's Davos programme, and for governments and financial institutions in Europe and the Middle East.
