CTA’s Director of Thematic Programs Brian Comiskey and team is spending much of their time thinking about the implications of metaverse in the enterprise, AI, innovation, and how it will impact industry, business, future of work and startup ecosystems. I think he'd be a compelling guest on your new series. 

CTA and Nasdaq developed many Nasdaq CTA Indexes, including, since 2017, the Nasdaq CTA Artificial Intelligence & Robotics Index (NQROBO) and Global Video Games Software Index (PLAYR2) - both which include metaverse/VR/AR. Brian is regularly quoted in global media and presents to financial institutions and at CES on the topic, including:

• Perspectives on how innovation is impacting the rise of Metaverse and where the growth is
• Insights on key trends to expect at CES 2024, especially in tech on the show floor and the conference/policy track
• How is technology impacting global markets on the backdrop of a recession

His team manages a portfolio of 15 thematic indexes with 20 funds tracking them across listings in more than a dozen countries and holding approximately $11B in assets under management – and they recently finished rebalancing the portfolio, so fresh insights are there about the companies and approaches making a difference in Metaverse.
