Bio: Faris Yakob grew up in the UK and, after graduating from Oxford University, went on to lead digital innovation at global agencies such as McCann Erickson and MDC Partners. An award-winning author, strategist, creative director and public speaker, he later co-founded the nomadic creative consultancy Genius Steals with his wife and partner, Rosie. Built on the belief that ideas are new combinations—and that no one can invent without inventory—Genius Steals has taken them to more than 40 countries since 2013, where they speak at events and consult with clients. Faris serves most of his clients remotely from the US, where he is currently located.
