Executive Research Leader
David Cushman is an executive research leader for HFS Research. He has a long-term focus on emerging technology, tracking OneOffice and OneEcosystem enablers from automation, artificial intelligence (AI), generative AI (GenAI), data and design thinking, Web3 and metaverse, process orchestration, workflow, and intelligence to quantum computing. He also leads the HFS Hot Tech program.
Experienced in startup, scale-up, and large-scale digital transformation programs, David has led digital development at the UK's fastest-growing media company, founded and grown digital consultancies across Europe, and worked with world-class companies as a director in digital strategy advisory at a Tier 1 services provider.
The author of The 10 Principles of Open Business (Palgrave Macmillan, 2014), David earned a joint honors degree in philosophy and sociology from the University of Essex.
He lives in Cambridgeshire, UK, with his wife and daughter and enjoys reading, writing, travelling, and thinking (exploration of all kinds). David embraces change and always seeks learning opportunities. But, for all that, he has been a supporter of Leeds United Football Club since he was seven years old. Some things just cannot be unlearned.
