Hi.

I lead, build, advise and invest in technology ventures that will make people’s lives better.

I’m particularly interested in the e/acc phenomenon, the role of policy in innovation and also common ‘inversion narratives’.

Some of what you will find here may be useful to you, even if it’s just a book recommendation or contract opportunity. Some of it might make no sense. It doesn’t have to, nor should all of it.

I write blog posts on here that are more in-depth than the concepts and thought trains that I scribe on Twitter and LinkedIn. There’s no particular order beyond whatever is occupying my mind and the posts will often sway across topics.

I’m a geographer at heart and by academic background. I’ve worked a number of jobs in economic research, manufacturing and tech; but running through all of these periods in my career has been an ongoing obsession with complex systems, their inputs, outputs and humans’ interaction with them; and of course, I know you’re thinking it - yes, Geographers spend most of their degrees just colouring in… I quite like that as a metaphor for life, though.
