The future of every industry is being rewritten by AI. But to unlock its true potential, AI must operate on a foundation of verifiable, traceable truth. This is the key to moving beyond simple automation to creating a core driver of business transformation, innovation, and growth. I've spent 40 years building that key.
Before LLMs, I was architecting the global library of high-trust knowledge they would learn from. My career has been a mission to structure the world's information, making it reliable and ready for the age of intelligence.
I built the blueprint for digital commerce, forging critical data standards (EDI/ONIX) between Pearson Publishing and a young Amazon in the 90s.
I digitized the library of human discovery at Cambridge University Press, leading the effort to bring the world's scientific knowledge online—including the works of Sir Isaac Newton. I was a driving force behind the platforms now hosting over half of the 400M peer-reviewed articles that fuel today's AI.
I translated knowledge into enterprise power at TCS for industry leaders like Toyota, architecting the complex cloud (GCP, AWS) and API infrastructure that powers modern business.
My book, "How does it know that," tells the story of how this invisible architecture of knowledge was built. My latest work, "The Digitisation of Science," provides the roadmap for the future: creating systems of information provenance to build AI we can truly trust.
The time to act is now. Your competitors are experimenting. You have the opportunity to leapfrog them by building an AI ecosystem based on integrity, creating a durable competitive advantage. I provide the strategic framework and technical expertise to make this a reality.
I am currently accepting select engagements to help visionary leaders:

Keynote Speaking: Galvanize your organization with a powerful vision for a future built on intelligent, trustworthy AI.
Strategic Consulting: Partner with your executive team to design and execute a roadmap for a world-class, trusted AI capability.
Let's move beyond asking what AI can do, and start building what AI should do. Connect with me to secure your place in the future of intelligent industry.
