Ian Bremmer is a leading political scientist renowned for making sense of global politics in ways that are accessible, insightful, and essential for leaders navigating today’s complex world. He is the founder and president of Eurasia Group, the premier firm focused on geopolitical risk, and of GZERO Media, which offers fresh and engaging coverage of international affairs.

Widely recognized for redefining the way political risk is understood in global markets, Ian created the first global political risk index and has helped shape the field into a critical discipline in finance and policy. His influential concept of the “G-Zero” world—where no single nation sets the global agenda—continues to guide discussions on international leadership and power dynamics.

Ian is the author of eleven books, including Us vs. Them: The Failure of Globalism and The Power of Crisis: How Three Threats—and Our Response—Will Change the World, where he explores how public health, climate change, and technological disruption may lead to greater global cooperation and resilience.

In addition to his writing and advisory roles, Ian is a global affairs commentator and the host of GZERO World with Ian Bremmer, a public television program featuring interviews with world leaders and thinkers. He contributes regularly to major media outlets and serves as foreign affairs columnist and editor-at-large at Time magazine.

Ian also plays a global policy role as the rapporteur for the UN High-Level Advisory Body on Artificial Intelligence. He holds a PhD and MA in political science from Stanford University and teaches at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs, bringing cutting-edge geopolitical insights to students and practitioners alike.

Whether through his research, media appearances, or live talks, Ian Bremmer equips audiences with the tools to understand power, conflict, and cooperation in an increasingly fragmented world.
