“I am overwhelmed by the newsletters and other content showing up in my email every week, but one I truly look forward to every Sunday morning is The Global Frequency produced by Matt Devost. It is a short, incredibly well curated list of significant news stories from the last week. And by significant I mean thought provoking or strategically important, not the big stories you have already heard. If you work at the intersection of cyber security, emerging technology and public policy, you should absolutely subscribe.”

As someone who advises CEOs and other corporate executives, heads of state, and countless technology, security, and intelligence professionals I'm often asked for recommendations on which articles and books to read.

The requestors are looking to inform their worldview and make better decisions about the future. To identify data points that are contextual and important. This list is the weekly distillation of those data points.

The Global Frequency identifies the most important stories and perspectives of the week that should be in your decision loop as well as items from the fringe that exemplify an emerging trend or issue. What you do with this content is up to you.
