SPEAKING · DUBAI · INTERNATIONAL

The technology story is bigger than the product.

Jamilia Grier connects the technologies people can see with the forces they cannot: market access, regulation, global competition and culture. From Dubai, she brings a U.S. lawyer’s lens and firsthand experience across China and the Gulf to conversations about what comes next.

01 / THE CONVERSATIONS

Three ways into the bigger story.

These are starting points. Each talk can be shaped for the audience and the moment.

01 / ACCESS

Who gets access to tomorrow’s technology?

Why can people experience a new vehicle or emerging technology in one market while it remains unavailable or largely unseen in another? Start with the product; follow the decisions about competition, trade and market access that determine who gets it.

02 / THE CORRIDOR

What the Gulf sees before the U.S.

Dubai offers a distinctive view of Chinese and emerging technology moving into global markets. What can leaders learn by looking across the United States, China and the Gulf together—and where are the next opportunities and tensions forming?

03 / THE RULES

When technology crosses borders but the rules don’t.

Products and ideas move globally; rules governing technology, data and trade do not move in step. An accessible conversation about the decisions companies and audiences face when innovation meets competing regulatory systems.

REGULATION · BUSINESS · CULTURE

02 / ON STAGE

A conversation built for your room.

Jamilia is available for select events where her perspective can move the conversation forward, whether the audience is made up of business leaders, technology builders or people curious about how the world is changing.
