The Near Futurist - a lot of what businesses think is "the future" is already here.
certified virtual presenter

Time Travel is impossible, they say - and yet so many businesses work as if they're still in the past. Guy Clapperton will use 30 years as a commentator and journalist on technology and future trends to take you on a journey into the near future - or as he calls it, "the present".

Guy was co-writer of "The Smarter Working Manifesto" in 2014, having seen the remote working revolution coming; he was also the author of one of the first books on social media for business in the UK, published 2009. He has been writing about technology and futures since 1989, when a phone was something you used to make calls and was wired into the wall.

Guy's mission is to get people to look around them and see what's actually happening rather than base their perceptions on (sometimes) years-old research. So many people think so many technologies and indeed management techniques are futuristic and innovative when actually they are tried and tested - Guy will leave an audience with a strategy to make a sea-change to their business by Stopping, Evaluating and Acting.
