Personal Information
Paul Papadimitriou is a VP and Principal Analyst at Constellation Research, specialized in Digital Intelligence.
He focuses on the next generation consumer experience. Connecting the dots of mobility, social technologies and consumer behavior, he translates the world of tomorrow for C-level executives and offers his expertise at public keynotes.
Paul travels around the world to better understand how technology impacts consumers —whether customers, employees or citizens—, how cultures impact technology and where businesses fit in this feedback loop. From his London, UK, base, he covers the EMEA and APAC markets, having previously lived in Tokyo, Manila and Geneva.
As a spotter of new technologies that interest big brands, Paul also follows startups. He's an advisor for startups and accelerator programs in the US, Europe and Japan.
Paul has been quoted by and worked with TF1/LCI (France), ABS-CBN (Philippines), BBC (UK), the Japan Times (Japan) and various other media outlets.
He sharpened his expertise from his first website created for a bank in 1994, to his mobile-content delivery startup uB-mobile in the previous dot-com boom, from a telemarketer to heading marketing operations at a luxury business consulting firm. He more recently became a successful lobbyist with a 600 clients portfolio. Upon moving to Tokyo in 2008, he created his own consulting firm and started organizing tech & mobile events.
Paul graduated from the Graduate Institute of International Studies in Geneva with a Masters in International Affairs.
