Marco Annunziata
I analyze the interplay of innovation and global economic trends, and assess the impact on business models and strategies. I have worked in policy, finance and industry -- most recently as GE's Chief Economist and Head of Business Innovation Strategy.
I consult, speak and write -- I am a regular contributor to Forbes.com. I love to learn, by collaborating, engaging in discussions, reading.
I am based in San Francisco; I have worked in London, Washington D.C, Milan, Toulouse; I've travelled quite a bit...and still do.
Take a look at what I am currently doing in the sections below, and get in touch.

What have I been up to lately?
Michael Leifman and I have just launched a podcast where we explore the latest technologies through a series of conversations with startup founders. We delve into the nitty-gritty of how the technologies get developed, where and why they make a difference, how companies get started. We debate the big picture implications, look into the future and sometimes wax philosophical. We disagree and argue, we have fun and learn a lot in the process. It's on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Podcasts , Spotify, Tune-in on Alexa... wherever you listen. You can also listen directly through M4Edge.com . Give it a try!

I love reading, and this website has a dedicated page on the books I am currently engrossed in and the thoughts they inspire.
As I travel, I also dabble in photography, and the gallery below will give you a sample of what catches my eye.
