FULL BIO
Hi. I have founded Strategic Foresight Group, a think-tank specialised in anticipating and influencing global future. Under its auspices, I have advised governments in different continents. I have been involved in creating new concepts and processes to address some of the intractable problems of the world including West-Islam relations, terrorism, geopolitical conflicts in South Asia and the Miiddle East, sustainability issues and emerging global systemic problems. I have been a faculty at Davos and have spoken at the committees and forums oof Indian Parliament, UK House of Commons, European Parliament, League of Arab States, UN Secretary General's Alliance of Civilizations and other forums. I am now extending my work to advise private sector companies.
