About Marc Davis
I can help you envision and invent the future. Whether you're developing next-generation technologies, strengthening your patent portfolio, or refining your innovation strategy, I provide the expertise to turn ideas into breakthrough inventions. I work with companies to identify opportunities, build stronger IP, and create transformative technologies that shape the future. If you're looking to advance in AI, media, mobile computing, or personal data, let’s collaborate to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
As an applied futurist, I help companies invent the future of technology, products, and patents. I led teams at Interval Research, Yahoo!, and Microsoft and was a professor at UC Berkeley, pioneering AI-driven media, mobile and context-aware computing, and personal data technologies. At Yahoo!, I led innovation teams, was Chief Scientist of Mobile, and worked with Jerry Yang on product vision. At Microsoft, my team and I advanced personal data systems and social search, and I invented with Bill Gates and Satya Nadella. With 240+ patents, my inventions help connect people, the Web, and the world. As a World Economic Forum advisor, I informed global policy on personal data and privacy. I also lead Artists on Planets, exploring the intersection of generative AI art, science, and creativity.
