Ian Khan, AI Readiness Futurist was shortlisted for the Thinkers50 Future Readiness Award for UNDISRUPTED (Wiley), one of eight thinkers recognised worldwide alongside Erik Brynjolfsson of MIT, Rita McGrath of Columbia Business School, Amy Webb of NYU Stern and Howard Yu of IMD.
He is the creator of the Future Readiness Score, an organisational readiness diagnostic built over five years and now used with hundreds of organisations across more than a dozen industries. It is why his
sessions work differently. Before he takes the stage, the leadership team completes an assessment built for their industry. During the session he reveals the collective results live, benchmarked against
every organisation measured. The room leaves with ranked priorities it produced itself, and every attendee receives a personalised ninety-day action plan.
The research behind it is primary. Every year Ian interviews more than five hundred senior leaders on camera: scientists, operators, founders, regulators and investors. Those interviews are produced as
The Futurist, an independent documentary series distributed on Prime Video, Apple TV, Roku, Tubi and Fire TV, and become the annual State of Industry benchmarks.
He is a USA Today and Publishers Weekly bestselling author, a Top 25 Futurist worldwide, a three-time TEDx speaker.
He does not deliver forecasts. He delivers evidence.
