Techplomacy Magazine

Conversations That Matter.

I’m excited to introduce Techplomacy Magazine, an independent Substack + LinkedIn-based publication featuring curated interviews and in-depth features with global leaders at the intersection of tech/AI, diplomacy, governance, and national security—with a special emphasis on voices from the Global South.

This publication is a project of the Techplomacy Foundation, a nonprofit, nonpartisan, and independent organization dedicated to bridging the divide between the fast-evolving tech industry and the often slower-moving world of government regulation. Our mission is to promote responsible innovation, transparency, and international cooperation in a rapidly changing digital world.

By launching Techplomacy Magazine as a LinkedIn newsletter, my aim is to foster informed dialogue, cross-border understanding, and greater accountability in how emerging technologies, particularly AI and cybersecurity, are reshaping power, sovereignty, and society.

What You’ll Find Here:

• AI Governance & Responsible Innovation

• Digital Sovereignty & Global Tech Policy

• Cybersecurity & National Interests

In each edition, I will bring you the voices of global leaders through deep-dive interviews and curated articles on some of the most pressing and often overlooked issues in technology and governance, along with the concerns and perspectives that truly matter.

While I edit and curate each edition, Techplomacy Magazine amplifies the voices of a global network of experts, leaders, and practitioners who share a commitment to building a digital future that serves all equitably.

🔍 Stay tuned for upcoming editions featuring exclusive perspectives from BRICS and other Global South countries on the future of AI diplomacy, digital sovereignty, and global tech governance.

✳️ Subscribe and follow for exclusive interviews, expert insights, and opportunities to be part of the conversation shaping our technological future.
