MUCH MORE THAN JUST A SPEAKER
WE ARE ALL THE SUM OF OUR CONNECTIONS, EXPERIENCES, AND FRIENDSHIPS
SOMETIMES 1 + 1 = 11
It’s all to easy to think of a speaker as just an expert in their own respective field, but have you ever stopped to think who the top speakers sit down and hang out with on a daily basis? In my case, through the clients I work with and the events I attend, I have regular conversations with world leaders and thought leaders, captains of industry, entrepreneurs, investors, and regulators from all walks of life, and with every encounter I learn new things and gain new perspectives which, when added together with my own and others, gives me a fascinatingly rich and diverse world view which I then feel privileged to be able to share with others so that we can all benefit.

IMAGINE THE POWER OF TRULY CONNECTED THINKING .
Most “Futurists” only see a small slice of the future which means your audiences won’t get to contemplate or experience all the futures ahead of you. As a business or government, or as an individual or professional, this means your future actions will be based on incomplete information.
Now imagine having just 30% of the information you need as a leader, if that. That’s what most audiences and businesses get. Now imagine seeing EVERYTHING the future has to offer, seeing how it all inter relates, and being able to explore and discuss it – not just a slice of it.
As a world renowned Futurist with knowledge of hundreds of emerging technologies and trends Matthew’s insights are astounding, and this is reflected in his ability to speak on the literal A to Z of subjects and leave audiences and industry experts speechless and clamouring for more. So ask yourself this question: Is just a slice of the future enough or do you want to see everything?
SOME EXAMPLES .
WHAT’S THE FUTURE OF AI AND ITS IMPACT?
HOW DOES AI AND OTHER TECHNOLOGIES IMPACT CYBER?
WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF MOBILITY?
AND HOW DO WE NAVIGATE DISRUPTION AND UNCERTAINTY?
NOW IT’S YOUR TURN . WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SEE ?
THE WORLD’S MOST COMPLETE FUTURIST!

TRENDING KEYNOTES .
EVERY EMERGING TECHNOLOGY . EVERY TREND . EVERY LINE OF BUSINESS . EVERY SECTOR . EVERYWHERE .
TRENDS COME AND GO . BUT FORESIGHT IS FOREVER .
When new technologies and trends emerge many keynote speakers seem to become experts over night – you know the ones, the so called experts that right up until that moment had never ever talked about the subject they say they’re now an expert in. We saw this with Blockchain and Web 3.0, the Metaverse, and Generative AI, and we will see it again with Quantum Computing, and many other technologies and trends.
Matthew by contrast has an impressive track record. He sees many of these technologies and trends emerging a decade or more out with examples including Generative AI, DeepFakes, and Synthetic Content which he’s been discussing with clients including Bloomberg and others since 2017 – a year before Gartner spotted them – the rise of innovative AI with Upgrade100, the Democratisation of Expertise with WIRED, Digital Humans and AI’s that build new AI’s with RWE, and even autonomously built and run AI businesses with Accenture in 2019 – 5 years before Sam Altman discussed the concept – and many others.
So ask yourself: Who would you prefer, an over night expert or the actual expert?

Most speakers brag about their their best seller status. I don’t because I give all my Codexes away for free, and it’s not because they’re rubbish it’s because I believe everyone should have access to information about their future.
