Rohit's presentation was very much tailored to the audience and provided an eye opening vision of what the future may hold and its impacts to all businesses. His delivery was excellent, providing an engaging, challenging and humour filled talk. As a keynote speaker, Rohit definitely delivered.

Rohit has helped us generate excitement for exploring the organisation’s future in a variety of senior management teams unfamiliar with strategy development. His presentations have been well tailored to different groups and invariably stimulated lively debate and engagement. A closed session with our management board was particularly successful. His follow up is helpful and his informal mentoring has helped the strategy team advance their futures thinking.

Rohit Talwar was a highlight at the 1st European Futurists Conference Lucerne, as a speaker and as a facilitator. In fact, for the state secretary for research and education of Switzerland - a sponsor of our conference - Rohit was “simply the best”.
Georges T. Roos, Director - European Futurists Conference Lucerne

Rohit has been working with the Academy for two years. He has spoken to several of our Chief Executive Groups and they have all found his subject (The Future) fascinating and have marked the session very highly. Rohit backs his talk on real research which gives him a high degree of authenticity. I would recommend him to any organisation.
