Louis Williams

Louis Williams is a Danish/British macroeconomist who after studying at Cambridge took up employment as an economist at Credit Suisse. Then, after a brief break living abroad, studying Mandarin and teaching English in Wuhan, China, helped launch an artificial intelligence fund and macroeconomic consultancy business in London. Building on this economic research undertaken at both Credit Suisse and xAI Asset Management, he released his first book - An Optimist's Brexit: A Millennial's Vision.

After, experiencing the high paced city environment, Louis received a scholarship to study his MBA in IESE, Spain, so moved out to Barcelona, exchanging at MIT and studying at Harvard Kennedy School. During his time in his MBA he became immersed in the start up world, working as a growth consultant and helping out start-ups in the UK, US and Latin America. After his MBA, he co-founded AL Ventures, a venture builder, looking to enable prospective entrepreneurs who did not have the financial means to launch, because entrepreneurship shouldn't be the privilege of the rich.

Louis is currently working on his second publication. Coronomics, where he will try to address the economic and geopolitical consequences of the Coronavirus epidemic, laying out the tough choices that government's face after the crisis.
