Keynote Speakers
Hear Wednesday’s keynote speaker, David Rose, CEO of Ditto Labs, as he addresses “The Internet of Things.” Rose asks us to imagine a world where data from objects such as umbrellas and gas tanks actually flows through the internet. This author of Enchanted Objects: Design, Human Desire, and the Internet of Things explains how to become part of Industry 4.0. In Rose’s future, products will become services and respond to our needs after getting to know us.
On Thursday, Kate Matsudaira speaks and inspires. She is Principal at Urban Influence and heads leadership workshops. She suggests that technology leaders often face unique challenges, including serving as the “face” of a team that most people do not understand. Co-workers often don’t know what they “do all day.” Kate also affirms how all employees are expected to be leaders regardless of their titles and will share strategies for leadership success.
On Friday, Brian Wong, Co-Founder and CEO of Kiip, will focus on mobile consumption trends and the question of whether or not we are in the age of mobile. He will address mobile from a consumer and economic standpoint and how it seems to be the solution for education in third-world countries. He will also explore how mobile technology is changing around the world and its effect on marketers and economies.
