About Dave
Dave Verma is a university lecturer, speaker and specialist in AI, cyber and organisational risk.
He is known for helping organisations understand complex issues in a way that is practical, engaging and grounded in the real world. His work focuses on the overlap between emerging technology, digital trust, human vulnerability and organisational decision-making.
With a background spanning higher education, digital risk, investigation, governance and complex professional environments, Dave brings a rare combination of credibility, clarity and presence. He has spent years working with difficult subjects, high-stakes contexts and mixed audiences, and now channels that experience into sessions that help teams and leaders think more confidently about AI, cyber and the changing nature of risk.
Dave works particularly well with non-technical audiences who need to understand what matters without being overwhelmed by policy language, technical jargon or fashionable hype. His style is direct, thoughtful and highly engaging, making him especially effective in education, leadership and public-sector settings.
His current work includes speaking engagements, staff briefings, leadership sessions and workshops on topics such as:
- AI, Trust and the New Human Risk in Education
- Cyber Risk for Non-Technical Leaders
- AI, Decision-Making and Organisational Exposure
- Human Vulnerability in the Age of AI
At the heart of Dave’s work is a simple aim: to help people think clearly, respond wisely and stay grounded as technology changes the way organisations work, decide and become exposed.
