Felix Riley is a writer, speaker, and business strategist whose career spans comedy, finance, and international enterprise. He began as a comedy writer for television and radio before moving into the City, where he launched his own company and sold it to a NYSE-listed firm, remaining on as managing director and a member of its Global Executive Board. His later ventures have taken him from negotiating copper-mining deals with President Banda in Zambia to revitalising struggling UK companies.
Alongside this business career, Felix has written two thrillers published by Penguin and
continues to write for television, developing crime dramas and high-concept series. His work as a speaker and strategist has earned him the reputation of ‘the consultant to the consultants’, helping global law firms, consultancies, and major organisations unlock bolder, more imaginative thinking.
What unites these pursuits is a single thread: Felix brings together creative flair and sharp commercial insight, distilling complex ideas into stories and strategies that resonate with audiences – whether on the page, on stage, or on screen.
