About Andrew McAfee
Andrew McAfee serves as the Associate Director at the MIT Centre for Digital Business, where he also co-founded the Initiative on the Digital Economy. An alumnus of both MIT and Harvard Business School, his research focuses on the complex intersections of technological growth and its multifaceted impact on the global economy. He is widely recognised for coining the term ‘Enterprise 2.0’, a concept exploring how modern organisations utilise collaborative tools and social media to solve systemic challenges.
His extensive body of work includes his debut book, Enterprise 2.0, as well as several influential collaborations with Erik Brynjolfsson. Together, they authored Race Against the Machine, which examined the displacement of the workforce by automation, and The Second Machine Age, a study of how rapid digital acceleration is reshaping commercial structures and society. These publications have established him as a leading voice on how economics, sociology, and management must evolve alongside computer science.
Organisations frequently book Andrew for his ability to translate complex digital trends into clear strategic frameworks. He offers a sophisticated perspective on the future of work and productivity, making him an essential choice for leadership teams looking to navigate the transition into a tech-driven landscape.
