Corporate Boards • Financial Services • Global Audiences

The world is aging — and faster than most leaders realize. Bradley reveals how the Super Age (when 20%+ of a nation’s population is over 65) is already reshaping workforces, consumer markets, capital flows, and competitive strategy. This is not a story of decline: it’s a roadmap for organizations ready to lead in a longevity economy.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
• How demographic shifts are rewriting the rules of talent, marketing, and product design
• Why the longevity economy is the largest untapped market opportunity of our era
• Practical strategies for building age-inclusive organizations that outperform

Corporate Strategy • Real Estate & Investment • Risk Officers

Most executives’ geographic intuitions are badly miscalibrated. Drawing on the Geography of Prosperity Index — which evaluates 250 U.S. metros across five interconnected systems — Bradley reveals why familiar “winner” cities like Miami rank 109th, why Frederick, Maryland cracks the top ten, and why the retirement havens of Florida cluster near the bottom. Geography is no longer a backdrop for strategy. It is strategy.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• How demographic scarcity, climate volatility, and AI disruption interact to reshape place-based risk
• Why location strategy must be treated as a portfolio decision, not a single headquarters choice
• A new framework for evaluating where to invest capital, build talent pipelines, and locate operations

KEY TAKEAWAYS
• Why siloed risk management is the biggest strategic blind spot facing boards today
• How to read compounding disruption before it becomes a crisis
• Frameworks for building resilience into workforce, location, and capital allocation decisions

Testimonials

 “Bradley has been a speaker in the OECD Forum, the largest conference that the OECD organizes every year, with government representatives, international media, as well as speakers from business, civil society and academia debating the major social and economic challenges that our societies face. His contributions always combine significant knowledge and new insights, with a fun, engaging, easy to follow presentation style!”

Willemien Bax

Head, OECD Forum (France)

“Bradley Schurman is one of the most engaging speakers I’ve had the pleasure to work with. He marries tremendous energy and charisma with an uncanny ability to not only spot big emerging trends, but bring them to life for his audience and drive home their significance. He connects the dots in a way that grounds his ideas in lived experience and historical context, giving listeners a touch point in the past and present to better understand the future.”

Claire Casey

Global Director for Public Policy, The Economist Intelligence Unit (UK)

“Bradley is passionate about furthering the agenda on aging; I have often heard him compare the silver vote to that of women’s rights, black rights, or gay rights. He’s good listener and can draw across different disciplines from the arts and business and public sector. Any conversation with him can turn into erudite discussion. He would be a good speaker or moderator at any forum.”

Cynthia Wu

Executive Director, Shin Kong Life Insurance (Taiwan)
