Timothy Allen talks with Olivier Roland. Olivier is a French author, entrepreneur, digital nomad and influencer with over 800,000 followers across his social media channels. His latest book (not out yet) focuses on how the internet is disrupting nation-states and how to navigate these opportunistic times. Olivier has been testing out the sovereign individual thesis for his manuscript by analysing the data related to the predictions that were made in the original book. What he has discovered is incredibly fascinating along with the other topics discussed in this episode including China, Próspera, Dubai, charter cities, digital nomadism, network states and Olivier explains to me what an infopreneur is and why it is such an important concept for the 21st century. Public service announcement: At about the 1hr 10m mark a microphone blew up and I had to restart the recording. I didn’t try to splice them together this time so prepare for quite a jolt in the conversation. Enjoy.
