So, what does a ‘Futurist in Chief’ do all day? Noah Raford tells us about his role looking up to 50 years in the future as part of his role with the Dubai Future Foundation.

He sits down with CPI’s Danny Buerkli to discuss how he identifies emerging opportunities and trends, and work with partners in the government and colleagues in the private sector to translate them into prototypes and, ultimately, policies. They also talk about the lessons that can be drawn from Dubai – and the UAE’s – transformation, his experience in the Prime Minister’s Office and much more.
