“When I met Jake back in the early 1990s, I realised that this was a guy who was different from everybody else that I knew – in a good way!

Jake has always been a step ahead on understanding and exploring the latest trends and, for me, exemplifies the expression “thinking outside of the box”.  On top of all of this, he happens to be a really great guy!”

“As a marketeer and futurist, it amazes me how Jake is always two or three years ahead.  He can see what others can’t and his provocative and informed insights offer big wins from a business perspective and great inspiration on the way through.  Jake is also a dynamic and compelling speaker who provides his audiences with fascinating new thinking they can use readily “back at their desks”. Jake combines creativity with pragmatism and I recommend him highly.”

“Jake is truly inspirational at thinking outside the box and helping to spot and engineer new trends. His GenC work taps into a global phenomenon in a timely and compelling way. In person and as a speaker Jake compliments the sharpness and originality of his thinking by communicating with charisma and infectious enthusiasm.

I recommend him whole heartedly to any prospective clients or collaborators.”

“Over the many years I’ve known Jake, I’m amazed by his ability to constantly predict future trends across a wide range of categories. However, it’s not only the predictions that add the value; it’s what these predictions will mean to answering future business challenges. He has both challenged the way we do business and helped us plan future strategies. I would highly recommend him.”
