Brian Banmiller Biography

Brian Banmiller is one of the nation’s most respected and well-known broadcast journalists. He has spent more than 40 years in the news industry, covering business, politics, and the economy on television, radio, and in print. He continues his four-decade-long career as a national business reporter for CBS News Radio, where his “Banmiller on Business” reports are delivered to an audience of millions nationwide.

Given his proximity to and connections in Silicon Valley, he has been covering the tech industry from its inception as a band of intrepid tinkerers in their garages to today’s global technology platforms used by billions worldwide. Banmiller has interviewed the Valley’s business leaders and innovators, and reported on the economic impact of key issues, including today’s critical debate surrounding artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning, a major topic consuming tech executives who have widely different opinions on both its impact and regulation.

Banmiller has also reported on the rise, decline, and rebirth of Silicon Valley, the fall of communism in Russia, the rise of capitalism in China, the ongoing threat of war in Korea, the economic future of Hong Kong, political instability in the Philippines, constant turmoil in northern Ireland, Brexit in England, the long-term economic impact of Germany’s reunification, and the fractures in the European Union.

He has interviewed Presidents Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, George HW Bush, and Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev. Successful entrepreneurs and industry leaders include Bill Gates, Charles Schwab, William Hewlett, David Packard, John Sculley, William Dell, Peter Thiel, and many others. He uses those experiences in his broadcasting, writing, and public speaking assignments, providing valuable (and occasionally humorous) insight to any audience.

As the business editor for KTVU Channel 2 news (Fox) in the San Francisco Bay Area from 1989 to 2005, Banmiller established himself as one of northern California’s most trusted authorities on Silicon Valley. For seven years he was executive producer and anchor of the nationally syndicated television business news magazine “On The Money with Brian Banmiller” and for five years was managing editor and co-anchor of “Silicon Valley Business”. Prior to joining KTVU Banmiller was a contributing Correspondent for the Wall Street Journal Report on Television.

A business school graduate of Villanova University, Banmiller spent 5 years as a Regular Officer in the United States Air Force, with tours of duty in Arizona, Vietnam, and Iran. He possessed security clearances above top secret and was discharged with the rank of Captain.

Artificial Intelligence: Friend or Foe

This is the most talked about and debated subject in Silicon Valley. Some predict doom and gloom for jobs and the economy. Others say it’s the savior of civilization. Who is right and what it means for you? Will the rise of robots put you on the scrapheap?

How The Media Shapes Events & What That Means To You

Social media and the internet have upended the entire media industry. The traditional advertising model is forever changed. How you communicate to survive in this new and noisy environment will dictate your business success. And the fierce debate raging about “fake news” versus “legitimate journalism” will fuel political and economic rhetoric for years to come.

How We Communicate in the Internet Age

The ability to communicate is one of the greatest assets every business person must have in order to succeed in an age where we are bombarded with information, sales pitches, “fake news”, tweets, Facebook feeds, LinkedIn posts, etc. How can you make your “elevator speech” stand out in our 30-second world? And millennial’s short attention spans make their ability to communicate effectively a challenge.

The Promises & Perils Facing World Economics in the Coming Decade

The United States is under threat of losing its place as the world’s leading economy. China, India and the European Union are but three regions challenging US supremacy. The very real and continuing threat of nationalist uprisings in Spain and northern Italy are precursors to political and economic upheaval worldwide. Brexit may just be the start.
