Learning Innovation in an Era of Exponential Change
Biography
The jobs of the future are the ones machines can’t do. Ubiquitous, mobile supercomputing. Intelligent robots. Self-driving vehicles. Neuro-technological brain enhancements. Genetic editing. Artificial intelligence. Climate change. Population growth. Migration and the rise of the Precariat. What do these mean for the future of work, how do we prepare ourselves and our colleagues to thrive in this rapidly transforming world? Focusing on nurturing human potential, Brown-Martin considers the opportunities, exciting possibilities and significant challenges of the fourth industrial revolution and how organisations as well as individuals can respond.

For many years, Graham Brown-Martin has been building fast growth technology businesses in the entertainment, education and publishing sectors. Today he works with commercial and social sector enterprises from large corporations to start-ups to help them identify their innovation immune system and unleash their own creativity. As a serial disruptor, Graham draws on his experiences of creating startups and organisations that challenged the status quo across the digital, creative and education sectors. He designed mobile computers in the 1980s, interactive digital music systems in the 1990s and cloud-based storage systems in the early 2000s. He takes his audience on a journey that challenges them to think differently about the future. Inspired by a chance meeting with artificial intelligence pioneer Seymour Papert, Graham has been working with AI systems for nearly 30 years with a particular interest in its potential to transform education.
