What is Future // History ?

In this bi-weekly newsletter, I’ll provide a high-level recap of the business and technology events and trends that are impacting international affairs and security around the world.

At Forward Horizon Group, we often refer to things like this as “the wave-tops” - the headline information that you need to know to make informed, strategic decisions to help drive your organization forward.

Who writes this?

I’m Jesse Nuese - the CEO and co-founder of Forward Horizon Group, a frontier markets and security consulting firm, as well as a US Army veteran, teacher, researcher, and writer.

I served four years in the US Army as an infantryman and a paratrooper, including a combat deployment to Afghanistan in 2014. I’m lucky to have studied all over the world at the intersection of markets, technology, and security. I hold a BA in international affairs from Columbia University, a Master of International Business from the Fletcher School at Tufts University, and am currently completing an MS in Cybersecurity Risk and Strategy at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering. I’ve also studied Mandarin at Peking University in Beijing, and conducted research at the University of Cambridge as a part of the Cambridge Security Initiative.

As the CEO of Forward Horizon Group, I travel frequently to places like Ukraine, Taiwan, and South Africa. Future // History is a means of putting the view on the ground in conversation with larger trends and events as we all attempt to navigate an increasingly complex world.

Who should subscribe?

People who will find Future // History helpful are professionals, staffers, politicians, academics, techies, community members, and anyone trying to understand the interplay of security, markets, and technology in a world that is increasingly hot, dangerous, crowded, and interconnected.
