Elise Quevedo
Author, speaker and technology analyst; contributor, Tomorrow's Affairs
Digital media advisory work
Elise Quevedo describes herself as an author, speaker, storyteller and analyst[1]. Her website says she helps individuals and brands share their message with authenticity and added value[1]. She is known as "The Digital Ghost Queen" for her behind-the-scenes work, which her Tomorrow's Affairs author biography says includes ghostwriting[2][5].
Her biography states that she spends most of her time helping businesses and individuals, from C-level executives to Hollywood stars, build their presence online[2]. It also states that she has collaborated with companies including Amazon, Huawei, eBay and PayPal[2]. She created SMEQ (Social Media Emotional Quotient), which she defines as the art of creating, attracting and building better business relationships through digital media[2]. Her listed interests include AI, digital transformation, disruptive technologies, enterprise and digital innovation, influencer marketing and start-ups[2].
Speaking
Quevedo speaks on social and digital media, technology and innovation, leadership, customer experience and motivation, and works as a speaker, moderator or presenter[3]. Her speaking page notes that she is Spanish by birth[3]. Events she lists include Codefest in Macedonia, Pioneers in Vienna, AV Alliance in Budapest, the Social Media SuperHero Summit in the US, Singapore University of Social Sciences and Huawei Connect in Europe and Shanghai[2]. She also lists DES (Digital Business World Congress) in Madrid, where she serves as an ambassador[2]. Her speaking motto is a line about using digital to impact people rather than to impress them[3].
Technology writing and analysis
Quevedo writes for Tomorrow's Affairs, a London-based international analytical publication, where her author page listed 97 posts in November 2026[5][6]. Her 2026 columns there have covered AI literacy, optical networks, quantum computing, humanoid robotics, neurotechnology and the Middle East's role in the global AI economy[7].
In a February 2026 column previewing Mobile World Congress Barcelona, she wrote that 2026 would be her ninth year attending the event in person[8]. She described that year's theme, "The IQ Era", as the convergence of connectivity and intelligence, and pointed to the new exhibition zones for space technology and satellite communications[8]. In the same piece she noted that she had worked at an airport for more than a decade earlier in her career[8].
In a March 2026 column, Integrating AI without surrendering humanity, she argued that constant exposure to AI tools carries a cognitive cost and that people are starting to seek distance from technology[6]. She wrote that leaders are becoming more selective about their digital presence to protect thinking time, and that technology should serve human potential rather than the reverse[6]. She also raised concern about a generation growing up with AI as a default layer of reality[6].
She has also written for LoneStar Advisory & Research, the analyst firm founded by Will Townsend[9][10]. Her March 2026 note on Mobile World Congress profiled three emerging companies: IQSTEL in AI-driven telecommunications, pureLiFi in optical wireless communications, and AGIBOT in humanoid robotics[9].
Books
Quevedo is the author of Creating a Kick-Ass Attitude, a motivational book about changing one's attitude to focus on what matters in business and in life[4][5]. Her Tomorrow's Affairs biography describes the book as sharing her view on keeping a positive attitude and moving forward whatever happens[5].
