Peter Heneghan is a distinguished AI and communications expert with a rich background in prestigious roles at BBC News, Channel 4, BuzzFeed, and 10 Downing Street. Heneghan played a pivotal role in transforming the UK Government’s digital communication during the COVID-19 pandemic through tech advancements and audience-centric campaigns.
In Spring 2023, he founded The Future Communicator, an innovative agency focused on AI and digital communication strategies. Their clients include a UN agency, The British Chamber of Commerce, a NASDAQ-listed company, and major media and tech players like Virgin Media and Mailchimp. Heneghan noted that many organisations struggle in the “messy middle” of their AI journey, caught between selecting the right AI technology and preparing their employees for this transformation.
To support leaders and their businesses, he launched ‘AI Halo,’ a framework and suite of tools to help businesses no matter where they are on their AI journey. Testament to its early successes, PR Week named The Future Communicator as an “agency to watch in 2024.”
