Melanie Garson - Cyber and Tech policy professional

In a world where tech is the new geography, Melanie Garson maps the frontier.

From global stages to the lecture hall, Melanie decodes the collision of tech and geopolitics, converging threats, and the future of defence in the intelligence age. By blending cutting-edge policy tools with scenario-based foresight, she helps global organisation scan beyond the ordinary horizons of geostrategy.

Whether you are a policymaker, corporate leader, entrepreneur, or investor, Melanie provides the extraordinary insight needed to get ahead of geopolitical shocks, mitigate unanticipated risks, identify opportunities and command the intersection of technology and global power.

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.


Melanie presents at international conferences globally on future implications of cyber, AI & emerging technologies on geopolitics & foreign policy.
