Orador Bio
Chris Sean Nolan is a multiple Emmy Award–winning director-writer, author, futurist, and global influencer who works at the crossroads of storytelling, technology, and human experience.
For more than three decades, Chris has created documentaries, television, films, and branded content for Fortune 500 companies including Google, Disney, Toyota, and Bayer, as well as leading universities and nonprofits—often translating complex ideas into motivating stories that inspire change and transform lives.
His films exploring the future of technology, humanity, digital transformation, and artificial intelligence have reached millions of viewers and are regularly featured at major conferences, including Producers Guild events, as well as in corporate and institutional trainings worldwide.
Chris is a leading voice on the future of entertainment, leadership, and artificial intelligence. His work focuses, in particular, on the opportunities and challenges explored in The Rise of Humanness in the Age of AI, based on his recent book of the same title. The work poses essential questions: What story are we creating for tomorrow? Is it one that contributes to a sustainable “Good Future” and deepens what it means to be human in an exponential age?
His recent projects include the feature documentaries Look Up Now: AI & the Future of Humanity and It’s VUCA, as well as Climate of Hope, a pilot for a limited series currently in
post-production. Across his body of work, Chris explores how emerging technologies can be used responsibly and with creative integrity to tell urgent, human-centered stories — particularly around climate, resilience, and societal transformation.
At the AI Summit, Chris offers an inspired perspective on what artificial intelligence means for human possibility, leadership, policy, and the future we are actively shaping together.
Chris is a member of the Directors Guild of America and the Writers Guild of America. In addition to his Emmy wins, his writing has been recognized by the WGA’s prestigious Humanitas Prize for work that advances humanistic values.
Chris and his wife, Laurie, are partners and co-founders of the award-winning production company 90,000 Feet. They reside in Santa Monica, California
