About guest:

Prof. John Rainford

Guiding Innovation at the Edge of Possibility

Some leaders talk about innovation.

John has spent over 50 years living it—quietly shaping some of the world’s most respected institutions from within.

With a foundation in physics, creativity, and human behaviour, he has supported visionary work at Shell Global, Rolls-Royce, Unilever, and led business transformation conversations from Oxford to the UAE. He’s been trusted with authoring MBA-level innovation curricula and has received fellowships for his contributions in both science and society.

An early AI and chess prodigy, John won his first national title at 15. Decades later, his creative work in education and wellbeing was featured by the United Nations.

He mentors with the same rigour he brings to strategy. As a foster carer and youth creativity advocate in Switzerland, John’s life continues to blend depth with purposes.
