Amelia Kallman - From Shanghai Showgirl to Futurist

Episode Summary

Hello, my friends, my life warriors! How are you doing? Today on the podcast I am very happy to speak to Amelia Kallman, a leading London futurist, speaker, and author. As an innovation and technology communicator, Amelia regularly consults brands, agencies, and governments on the impact of new technologies on the future of business and our lives. Originally from a theatrical background, Amelia started her tech career by chance in 2013 at a creative technology agency where she worked her way up to become their Global Head of Innovation. Coming from a non-traditional technology background, she has a unique talent for making the complex accessible. Since going freelance in 2017 she has become an in-demand international speaker, providing frank, unbiased, and ethical assessments for her audience. As well as lecturing at Cambridge University, writing a multi-award winning book, exhibiting her art internationally, and directing the first 360°burlesque show, she has also had her writing featured in WIRED UK, IBC365, and The Big Reveal. So please enjoy the podcast and stay safe, stay well, be awesome, and please take a moment to tell a friend and subscribe.
