Biography

Dr. Pippa Malmgren is a globally recognized economist, author, and former White House presidential advisor who specializes in translating complex geopolitical and technological signals into actionable economic foresight. Dr. Malmgren operates at the intersection of macroeconomics, national security, and frontier innovation. She bridges the gap between elite policymaking and marketplace disruption, serving as a uniquely optimistic, solutions-oriented voice for audiences navigating a world of rapid change

At the highest levels of global governance, Dr. Malmgren served as Special Assistant to President George W. Bush for Economic Policy on the National Economic Council. Following 9/11, she was tasked with assessing terrorism risks to the domestic economy and managing Pentagon procurement from cutting-edge technology startups. She also served on the President’s Working Groups on Corporate Governance and Financial Markets, positioning her at the epicenter of global crisis management and strategic economic policy.

Today, Dr. Malmgren champions a realistic, yet profoundly positive vision for technology and human progress. She serves as a Strategic Advisor to C10 Labs, the AI Venture Builder Studio and Fund at the MIT Media Lab, and is a Senior Associate Fellow at RUSI, the world’s leading defense think tank.

In Summer 2026, Pippa contributed to Springer Nature’s prestigious new core textbook on AI, where she authored the chapter "What Is Alive and Enlivened After AI?" She also stars alongside Yuval Noah Harari, Stuart Russell, and General Stan McChrystal in the 2026 documentary film Intelligence Rising, an intense, high-stakes wargame simulation exploring how AI is actively reshaping global power, governance, and markets.

Dr. Malmgren’s long history of institutional leadership spans public policy and multi-billion-dollar financial markets. She previously advised the British Cabinet on international trade, ran the Bankers Trust Asset Management business in Asia, and served as Global Chief Currency Strategist and Deputy Head of Global Strategy at UBS. As a deep-tech entrepreneur, her industrial robotics firm won the National Technology Award and the Cog X Award for Autonomy.

An award-winning author, her bestselling books include The Infinite Leader (International Press Award Winner for Best Book on Leadership) and The Leadership Lab (Business Book of the Year). She holds a PhD from the London School of Economics, completed the Harvard Program on National Security, and shares her real-time global insights through her popular Substack column.

On stage, Dr. Malmgren translates deep multi-sector expertise into deeply impactful storytelling. Having lectured at Sandhurst, the Royal College of Defence Studies, and the Duke Fuqua EMBA program, she possesses the rare ability to command a room of hard-nosed technical experts and corporate executives alike. She customizes every keynote to her audience's specific domain - whether introducing the "New Rules of Energy and Intelligence," analyzing the shifting geopolitical landscape, or utilizing her proprietary concepts like shrinkflation and heartware to help organizations scan the horizon for emergent market trends.

Dr. Malmgren routinely solves the problem of strategic paralysis caused by macroeconomic and technological chaos. Backed by consistent glowing feedback from global giants like Google, Rolls Royce, McLaren F1, and Citi, audiences take away a clear cognitive map of tomorrow's economy and the practical confidence to capitalize on disruption.
