Why
James
Blake?

Most speakers talk about things. James has done them. He's built a business from £500 to £150 million in client revenue. He's made primetime BBC documentaries that have been internationally broadcast. He's won an RTS Award. He's been inside trafficking compounds, prison cells and boardrooms. He's spoken in Parliament.

He is also a certified graduate of the Artificial Intelligence programme at the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School - bringing accredited, academic rigour and real substance to his talks on AI, technology and the future of business.

That breadth of experience - across business, media, academia and the most challenging investigative journalism - is what makes him a speaker worth booking. He doesn't deliver a polished presentation. He delivers a perspective that audiences don't forget.
