Samuel Burke
Emmy-Winning Tech Journalist & Chief Content Officer, Find.co
Samuel Burke brings frontline insight from the world’s most influential companies, leaders, and technologies.
As a keynote speaker, Samuel examines how innovation, power, and geopolitics intersect, from the boardrooms of Big Tech to emerging markets and global supply chains.
As a conference moderator, he brings the same journalistic rigour to live discussion. Samuel is trusted to chair high-level panels with CEOs, founders, policymakers, and technologists framing debate precisely, asking direct, informed questions, and keeping conversation grounded in evidence rather than hype.
What distinguishes Samuel in both roles is proximity. He reports from inside the systems shaping the future, giving audiences insight not just into trends, but into how power, innovation, and accountability actually operate. For organisations navigating technological acceleration and global uncertainty, he offers clarity, context, and credibility.
