Structured around competition, conflict, and climate change, his talk provided valuable foresight into how trends might shape the world.

Jake’s ability to link complex, interconnected issues with clarity made his talk both sobering and inspiring. Attendees also had the chance to ask questions and network within the Tonbridge community, making it a truly engaging session.

Jake is a Geopolitical Consultant at Gatehouse Advisory Partners, having joined the firm in 2022. Prior to joining Gatehouse, Jake worked as a Strategy Consultant, where he advised financial services and energy clients on market entry and corporate strategy. Jake holds a first-class Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from the University of Oxford.

Jake has worked particularly closely on issues related to the energy transition and conflict scenario planning, with a particular focus on the geopolitics of the Asia-Pacific region.
