Data Storyteller and Investment Writer, Founder of Eeagli (LinkedIn Top Voices 2022 - Finance)

I make data dance because when numbers come alive you can see the world for what it is.

I’m James Eagle, a data visualisation specialist, keynote speaker, and seasoned investment writer with two decades of experience in asset management and banking industries. I’ve developed unique techniques that transforming complex topics into clear, compelling stories.

What I Do:

→ Data Visualisation: I bring stories to life through visuals that cut through the noise, revealing truths you might miss that help you start conversations that matter.

→ Thought Leadership: My upcoming book, From Chaos to Clarity (launching July 10), explores how data visualisation could help save humanity from a world drowning in data.

→ Keynote Speaking: When step on stage I ignite the room, bringing data to life through my powerful animated visualisations.

→ AI Innovation: I'm building an AI language model that lets you upload and explore massive datasets, uncover the hidden stories beneath the numbers, and transform these discoveries into powerful visual narratives.

→ Social Media & Communication: I consult with companies of all sizes to help them tell better stories online, bridging the gap between complexity and clarity.

Why It Matters: Because data, when brought to life, has the power to shift perspectives, shape strategies, and ignite new ideas.

The AI money machine! Well, it's almost impossible to map. But someone has got to do it. This is the circular flow of capital through the AI infrastructure
economy from 2019 to 2032. A rose-tinted version that's being priced in. What looks like a complex web is actually a surprisingly simple money machine.

Here's how it works. Tech giants (Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Meta) invest trillions in AI development and infrastructure. That money flows to OpenAI and cloud providers, who then purchase GPUs and networking chips from NVIDIA, AMD and Broadcom. Meanwhile, OpenAI generates revenue by licensing its models back to Microsoft and others, creating a closed loop. 

The numbers are staggering. Microsoft has invested over $13 billion in OpenAI since 2019. Oracle just signed a $300 billion deal with OpenAI for data centre capacity through 2029. Meta is scaling from 150,000 NVIDIA GPUs in 2023 to 1.3 million by the end of 2025, spending up to $65 billion this year alone. Broadcom's AI chip revenue jumped from $3.8 billion in 2023 to a projected $40 billion by 2026, a tenfold increase in three years.

What makes this ecosystem fascinating is how tightly interconnected it is. NVIDIA recieves infrastructure spending from nearly everyone. The chip makers get paid in advance whilst the AI companies bet on future revenue that may or may not materialise. If we assume that it does however, then this is what it looks like. Is this realistic. Let me know in the comments below.

This is the power of data visualisation and why we launched PlotSet. Is what we see here realistic? Let me know in the comments below.

Co-founder of PlotSet | Turn complex data into beautiful, ready-to-share data visualizations. The best bit is no coding required.

Long-dated global yields pushing back towards 4%, the highest level since 2009. It is not a quiet move. It is a signal. For the first time in years investors are beginning to doubt that the global rate-cut cycle has much life left in it.

The backdrop explains the shift. Traders are now pricing almost no further cuts from the ECB. Japan is expected to hike. Australia may deliver two more increases next year. Even in the US the Fed is preparing to cut this week yet long bonds are selling off as investors reassess inflation the government’s fiscal outlook and the politics around the next Fed Chair. 

Across developed markets the same story appears. Higher deficits more debt issuance and inflation stickiness are forcing investors to demand a higher risk premium for lending long term.

Look again at the chart and the implication is clear. The era when long bonds offered diversification and predictable yield compression is fading.
If long-term rates remain pinned near 4% what does that mean for equity valuations housing markets and governments already struggling with the cost of debt?

Invention Capital Associates

Intangible assets drive corporate value in the 21st century.  As a strategic consulting firm we help our clients recognise what their intangible sources of competitive advantage are and how to generate business impact from them.   We both advise and engage hands-on change where appropriate.  Our KPI's are revenues, margins and market share.  Our ultimate success is measured by an increase in enterprise value for our clients.

We work frequently with private capital in deal origination and due diligence, operational and financial growth and the remediation of intellectual property rich companies.  We are industry agnostic and have specialist experience across a wide range of sectors.

Our founding team has advised and supported the investment of over $500m into VC investments and driven over $1bn in licensing value.  Our edge is a data-driven reality check combined with deep industry knowledge and hands-on operating experience.  

We work closely and collaboratively with our clients' established advisors, performing those value added activities that fall outside of their area of competence and within ours.  Very often we are providing "last mile consulting", helping company management get ready to engage with VC or PE.

Investor, Chairman

I am an investor, advisor and entrepreneur who primarily works with private companies close to, or at inflection points.

I have a hands-on approach to working with stakeholders to realise value in a direct but collaborative manner.  

I understand and like intellectual property/intangibles as fundamental value drivers - and have worked in tech, life sciences, media, finance and manufacturing - being recognised by Intellectual Asset Management Magazine for twelve consecutive years as one of the worlds top 300 IP strategists.

#people #platform #product #process #pricing

Opportunities I most frequently see to add value are:

1. Growth Capital 
2. Buy outs / MBO
3. IP Monetisation 
4. Restructuring and rescue 
5. Due Diligence 

I bring tough love, a powerful network and a great deal of experience to the table.

I do the homework for myself and others.
