Humanity has never faced so many disruptive technologies emerging all at once—each capable of reshaping industries, politics, and even civilization itself. When combined, their impact is profound. Yet, many of these technologies are complex, unpredictable, and potentially dangerous in the wrong hands.
Nick unpacks this complexity, revealing what’s possible while delivering eye-opening insights and facts that keep you thinking. He dives into how these inventions will redefine our understanding of life itself, longevity, power generation, resource scarcity, influence, governance, and the very rules that hold society together.
“The real opportunity lies in understanding not just the individual impact of these deep technologies, but how they can be strategically combined for competitive advantage, corporate survival, and a healthier future for all.”
—Nick Ayton, Technologist, Futurist
Why book Nick as your event moderator and master of ceremonies?
Simply put, you’ll be in safe hands. With vast experience in live events, Nick knows how to handle any situation while keeping the energy high and the conversation flowing. His ability to put audiences, sponsors, and speakers at ease comes from his broad knowledge as a polymath, covering everything from capital markets and investing to deep tech, synthetic biology, quantum computing, AI, and cutting-edge topics like new energy sources and modern corporate espionage.
Nick’s personable style, easy conversational approach, and sharp humor keep things moving smoothly. He’s skilled at keeping speakers on track, maintaining the event’s timing, and ensuring the audience stays engaged and involved. As Nick often says, “We’re in the entertainment business, and our job is to deliver three things: (i) a compelling experience for the ticket price, (ii) fresh insights that leave the audience smarter, and (iii) an open forum for questions and discussion.”
Event organizers love working with Nick because he handles issues effortlessly. Speaker drops out? Nick’s ready to step in. Someone goes off-topic? He skillfully steers the conversation back on course. His knack for encouraging speakers to open up, plus his ability to deliver impromptu Q&A sessions or deep tech keynotes, makes him a favorite with producers.
When you book Nick, you’re not just getting a moderator—you’re getting a master of ceremonies who ensures your event is dynamic, seamless, and memorable.
Grasp of the issues...
Nick has a knack for quickly getting to the heart of complex issues, simplifying them into clear language, and asking the questions we’re all thinking. His no-nonsense papers and articles cut straight to the point—whether it’s the flaws of Generative AI, the looming Data Crisis, Zero Gravity tech, Anti-Matter without the explosions, or Synthetic Life forms. Nick dives deep into the tech that’s reshaping our world, from why NFTs are broken, how Wall Street hijacked Bitcoin, to why Digital Transformation is a myth and why your company is more vulnerable to catastrophic hacking than ever before.
As a technologist, Nick is obsessed with how these technologies can be combined, leveraged, and shared to drive exponential improvements in performance, society, and the future of civilization.
When it comes to the events he Chairs, Moderates, or Speaks at—it’s all about preparation, backed by what he calls the “secret sauce”: age and experience. With decades of live events under his belt, Nick’s track record speaks for itself.
Determined to make groundbreaking technologies accessible to everyone, Nick is producing a documentary series on Frontier Tech. He’s also written a drama-thriller TV series, now entering production, about the existential clash between humanity and Artificial General Intelligence—a story he believes is more urgent than ever.
