Graham Lovelace is a globally recognised strategist, writer and keynote speaker on the impacts of generative AI on media, society, and the evolving policy landscapes across the US, UK, and Europe.

His work equips organisations and audiences with the insight to navigate disruption, seize opportunities, and address ethical challenges with confidence.

An award-winning journalist and senior editor, Graham has spent more than three decades at the intersection of media and technology. He has been a journalist, editor, consultant, producer and entrepreneur, with a lifelong interest in the future of information.

His journalism career includes senior roles at the BBC, Visnews, BSB News, ITN, Channel 4 and the Press Association, complemented by executive education at Harvard Business School’s Advanced Management Program.

He advises organisations on AI strategy and policy, offering a rare blend of practical newsroom experience and future-focused insight. His leadership roles include serving on the steering group of the Oxford Consultation on AI, established by Oxford University’s Institute for Ethics in AI, membership of the UK’s All-Party Parliamentary Group on AI, and advisory work with the AI and intellectual property law firm AiPhelion.
