David Mattin is an internationally recognised expert on foresight, innovation, and emerging technologies and their social and economic implications.

He is the founder of New World Same Humans, a newsletter on trends and technology read by 30,000 professionals across industry, academia, and policy-making.

David is also Head of Technology Research at Global Macro Investor (GMI), one of the world's leading independent research services for allocators of capital.
