Knowledge you didn’t know you needed to know!
Adviser. Speaker. Educator.
Drawing across experience advising on cyber policy & hybrid cyber-physical threats, building innovative scenario based programmes on tech governance & diplomacy, teaching about the future of defence in the digital age, and designing research to navigate regulatory futures, Melanie helps organisations of all sizes scan beyond the ordinary horizons of geo-strategic tech futures.
This extraordinary insight helps entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers and corporates like you get ahead of risks, identify opportunities, and influence policy at the intersection of tech and geopolitics.
Forewarned is Forearmed!
The most significant risks to our plans and organisations often emerge without foresight and without warning - in short - we never saw it coming!
With a broad knowledge of international security, defence and geopolitical dynamics combined with a deep understanding of disruptive tech, rooted in a strong network of global policy voices, Melanie provides real interdisciplinary intelligence for the increasingly artificially intelligent world.
As every layer of the tech ecosystem, from subsea cables to satellites, becomes more complex and more contested, she helps innovators, entrepreneurs, investors, executives, and policymakers discover blindspots and unravel the potential ripple effects of geopolitical shifts, anticipate regulatory reactions, and increase their systemic resilience.
Whether through a challenging and dynamic keynote on the economic impacts of electronic jamming, media analysis on drone warfare, or bespoke briefing on the corporate risks of geopolitical hacktivism, Melanie goes beyond the safe and, frankly, predictable line of ordinary insights.
