Author Information

Stuart Leaf started his career at Merrill Lynch Capital Markets and Goldman Sachs. He held senior positions in smaller real estate, private equity, and asset management firms, before cofounding Cadogan Management, a Fund of Hedge Funds, in 1994. Investing around the world in a range of different strategies, including a significant exposure to technology, he and his partners grew the funds to $7.5 billion in assets. After a career in the early days of the global derivatives technology industry, Daniel Doll-Steinberg created one of the first global standards for digital rights management, securing and delivering activation keys and content direct to customers, which helped transform the software industry. Specializing in disruptive technologies, he focused on Blockchain and AI, investing in and transforming real world products and companies with these transformative technologies and in 2017 cofounded the Atari Token Metaverse project. Daniel was appointed by the European Commission, and then the UK government, an expert advisor specializing in education, growth, disruption, and Future of Work policy. As the middle of six children, Michael Langan quickly carved out his space in the group; he was the storyteller. Out in the real world, he would gravitate to office and administration roles until he quit his job in 2020, deciding to become a full-time voice-over artist and a background artist in film and television productions. When he's not on set, in his home studio, or being forcibly dragged across rugby fields by his dog Oisin, he can be found in his kitchen, setting off the fire alarm on a regular basis with his attempts at cooking and baking.
