Samantha Radocchia Biography
Samantha Radocchia (Sam Rad) is a lifelong student of humanity – futurist, anthropologist, and entrepreneur.
She is the founder of Radical Next, a meta-media studio creating transformative stories, experiences, and media productions that shape a positive future. Her upcoming book, "Radical Next: Thriving in Times of Radical Change," explores how “radical next ideas” and technologies will transform societies in the decades to come.
A charismatic speaker and performer, Radocchia has shared stories of radical change with global audiences on stages across five continents, empowering individuals, leaders, and organizations to not only survive but thrive through radical and accelerating change. She’s advised the United Nations, WEF, and Federal Reserve Bank, to name a few.
Radocchia was trained in anthropology, engineering, and symbolic systems. She studied simulated and immersive realities, pushing the bounds of human consciousness and connection through her work. In 2009, she was amongst the first anthropologists to conduct ethnographic research in the virtual world of Second Life.
Her work as a futurist has led Radocchia on a journey of working with a range of frontier technologies, indigenous and emerging social structures, people, places, and practices. She refers to herself as an archaeologist of the future, as Fredric Jameson coined — applying a traditional anthropological ethnographic approach to envisioning and illustrating future possibilities.
Just as a small shard of pottery unlocks insight into past civilizations, a seemingly unremarkable detail in the present offers a window into infinite future possibilities and realities. Radocchia carefully reconstructs fragmented visions of what was, what is, and what can be.
A four-time entrepreneur, Radocchia has served across multiple founding executive roles across the C-Suite. She was previously co-founder of LOVE, a London-based Generative AI communication platform, and Chronicled, a San Francisco-based blockchain company bringing trust to global commerce and supply chains. Prior to Chronicled, she founded two companies leveraging AI to map personal taste. Radocchia holds several patents linking the physical and digital worlds and is considered a pioneer in Applied Cryptography, Blockchain systems, Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Immersive Realities, and Simulations. She is noted as inventing the protocols which would lead to ERC-721 or Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).
Radicchio is the author of the #1 Best Seller, "Bitcoin Pizza: The No Bullshit Guide to Blockchain," writes as a contributor to Forbes, and was named to the 2017 Forbes 30 Under 30 list.
She is passionate about empowering humanity to thrive in times of radical change. Radocchia is on a mission to restore trust and connections between people and themselves, their source, each other, all beings, and our planet.
True to her “Rad” name, Radocchia is no stranger to risk and has accumulated over 700 jumps as a competitive skydiver.

“I’ve heard dozens of blockchain talks and yours was the best! It was so applicable, which is hard.
Singularity University - Jul 16 2019 -
"Sam is one of those rare individuals who has the ability to catalyze — whether it be an audience, her team, or her company’s customers. As a keynote speaker and panelist, she has the unique ability not only to distill complex topics surrounding emerging technologies, but also to make sense of why technologies like blockchain will impact the lives of individuals and businesses alike. She had a tough job, speaking to a room of 500+ accounting professionals on blockchain, and she didn’t cease to impress and inspire.”
CohnReznickLLP - Jul 16 2019 -
“Samantha joined us for our annual CRN Trade Association Conference for Keynote address on how blockchain and other emerging technologies will impact the Supplements and Functional Foods Industry. She also facilitated an interactive, audience engaging panel covering the specifics of how blockchain directly impact and enhance the industry. Sam is an energetic, engaging, and astute speaking and I would recommend her for any event where complex technologies need to be broken down into digestible, and often fun, communications.”
Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) - Jul 16 2019 -
"Sam joined us to deliver a keynote address for Cisco Supply Chain’s 2018 Development Day, where she took the audience on a mesmerizing journey through the paradigms that have shaped distributed and decentralized computing.
