Michael's official speaking topics are listed below:

Redesigning Work and Learning for the Age of AI 

Beyond theory, I’ve designed a new school curriculum with AI for ages 2–23 and am working with several countries on its implementation. This extends into the future of work, where I’m also in discussions with Standard Chartered. I’ll be speaking on this topic at Brett King’s global event in September.

Data: Our Next Great Asset

Focused on monetising and leveraging data in the AI era. I own the trademark for Data as an Asset and have developed world-first valuation models for data, AI, and people.

The Next Economy: Future of Money and Finance 

Drawing on my leadership experience at Mastercard, where I advised central banks and C-suites, this keynote spans Open Banking (I helped shape early regulations and built Mastercard’s first product) to digital assets and beyond.

The World of 2050: Cognitive Economies, Climate and Health

Aligned with my book’s vision of a cognitive/intelligence economy, this keynote explores the future of economies, healthcare (I’m collaborating with a genomics company), and energy.

Rethinking AI: From Threat to Transformation

Focused on collaborative intelligence, a concept I coined three years ago, which I’m advancing in close partnership with regulators and governments.
