Matt Desmier
Strategist | Advisor | Mentor | Raconteur | Troubadour
Bournemouth University
A strategist. An advisor. A mentor, raconteur and troubadour. There are many strings to Matt’s bow but right now, as a Business Engagement Manager for Bournemouth University, linking that great institution with businesses is his top priority.
A seemingly insatiable curiosity, distinctive laugh and unique dress sense have helped ensure Desmier is an in demand keynote speaker, discussing a wide variety of future-focused topics such as the future of marketing, the future of education, branding, positioning, social media, AI and the metaverse.
And when he’s not busy running around linking businesses with the University, he’s busy running around picking up after his two young children or, as an amateur runner, he’s just busy running.
