Consulting, Research, and Advisory Work

Consulting:

Josh has relevant insight other consultants cannot match, with 15 years’ experience consulting to governments, corporations, and startups. His background has seen him spend serious time both in the trenches coding and cracking, and in the boardroom managing development and deployments. His emphasis on a hacker’s approach provides critical value in:

    • A realistic AND insightful eye for when and how to utilize emerging technologies and implement new models,
    • Solid technical knowledge to make on-the-fly assessments and reality checks,
    • Analytical systems thinking, procedures and processes to hold the executive team accountable.

Much of his consulting work is aimed at bringing increasing innovation to the organization, be it a 5-person startup (as with incubators like La Laboratoire or IdeaLab, or through direct consultation as to Vinyl.is or and ScenarioDNA), a Fortune 500 (such as Pfizer, IBM, or AT&T), or a major geopolitical entity (such as the State Department, NSA, or the World Economic forum).

Research:

Josh frequently provides emerging technology research for organizations large and small, turning this insight into market-leading strategy for both product and business model evolution. His deep technology background enables him to quickly cut through hype to find where an organization can get maximum leverage, saving time and providing first-mover advantage.
