How to describe Azeem... Thinker, writer, advisor, technologist and former founder. After studying Politics, Philosophy and Economics from Oxford, Azeem has pursued a career spanning journalism, venture investing, machine learning, natural language processing, entrepreneurship and advisory.
In 2009, Azeem founded
PeerIndex which processed social data using machine learning to identify novel, actionable signals. The company was acquired by
BrandWatch in 2014.
I'd highly recommend everyone subscribe to Azeem's insanely insightful newsletter, the Exponential View. He also runs a podcast by that name which has featured some incredible guests, including author
Yuval Harari and economist, investor and former Warburg Pincus Vice Chairman
Bill Janeway.
