ABISHUR PRAKASH BIOGRAPHY
Abishur Prakash is a globally recognized authority on geopolitics, economics and technology. Born in New Zealand and raised in Australia and Canada, his multicultural upbringing spans multiple continents, including time spent in India and Hong Kong. His upbringing has played a major role in shaping his unique perspective on geopolitics—fusing traditional concepts of power, influence, and domination with the transformative shift of technology’s impact on geopolitical strategies influenced by diverse cultures and systems.
As the CEO and co-founder of The Geopolitical Business, an advisory firm based in Toronto, Canada, Abishur Prakash guides multinationals, central banks, and corporations in navigating geopolitics. His tenure at the Center for Innovating the Future (CIF) cemented his reputation, leading to his recognition by institutions such as the World Economic Forum, Brookings Institution, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (United Arab Emirates).
In 2022, the Mathias Corvinus Collegium’s Budapest Lectures series welcomed Abishur Prakash to lecture on technology’s role in remaking geopolitics. In 2023, Prakash expanded his influence by starting The Geopolitical Business, contributing to critical dialogues on issues such as the Ukraine war and the future of technology at Sandor Palace, underscoring his relevance in current geopolitical discourse.
Abishur recently spoke in Budapest at the invitation of the President of Hungary, Katalin Novak, discussing the global impact of the Ukraine war and providing insights on the economic and political outlook on world politics, political influence and emerging superpowers. Before that he was interviewed by the Hungarian Conservative, which featured a popular interview – ‘We are exiting the world where a single superpower calls the shots’ – Interview with Abishur Prakash.
Prakash is a sought-after speaker at international forums, sharing his expertise on topics ranging from cybersecurity to international robotics, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things. Abishur’s coined phrase ‘Next Geopolitics’ has prompted nations to adapt their strategies in a rapidly evolving global landscape. Prakash serves as an Advisory Board Member of the Budapest Centre for Long-Term Sustainability (BC4LS) and has made appearances on major broadcast media outlets like CNBC and BBC, South China Post, CNBC, Reuters and many more…
A prolific writer, Abishur Prakash is the author of five books. His initial offering, “Next Geopolitics: The Future of World Affairs (Technology),” laid the groundwork by identifying emerging technologies as the new arbiters of global power. This idea gained further traction with his book “Go.AI (Geopolitics of Artificial Intelligence),” which was acknowledged by France-based think tank IFRI. His most recent book, “The World Is Vertical: How Technology Is Remaking Globalization,” builds upon these themes, cementing his standing as a preeminent thinker at the crossroads of technology and global affairs.
Abishur Prakash is a preeminent thought leader specializing in transformative technologies, including artificial intelligence, robotics, quantum computing, virtual reality, and genetic engineering. His unique futurist perspective offers actionable insights to businesses, governments, and global leaders, assisting them in navigating the new paradigms shaping economic landscapes, socio-political dynamics, and workforce structures. Abishur’s work delves into a range of complex themes from technology and economics to warfare and political tensions, further enriched by data sovereignty, ethical technology, and environmental sustainability considerations.
By integrating these themes with critical subjects such as international trade, sanctions, intellectual property rights, cultural diplomacy, global health security, and human rights, Prakash provides a comprehensive framework for understanding today’s rapidly changing landscape. His analyses address how emerging technologies impact global supply and demand, contribute to the rise of new superpowers, and influence shifting political alliances. This nuanced approach positions him as an invaluable resource for those aiming to adapt and thrive in a world where technological advancement intersects geopolitical power and influence.
