The Speaker Agency Teams with Tech Humanist Kate O’Neill

The Speaker Agency is pleased to announce the addition of author, entrepreneur, and experience strategy expert Kate O’Neill to our roster of distinguished keynote speakers. Topics such as futurism and technological change are an increasingly common request among Speaker Agency clientele, making this very timely and exciting addition.

Kate is known as the Tech Humanist, which also happens to be the title of her latest book. As such, she “help(s) humanity prepare for an increasingly tech-driven future by guiding business and civic leaders to be both successful and respectful with human-centric data and technology, and by helping people better understand the human impact of emerging technologies.” Simply put, she wants to make tech better for business and for people. It is a philosophy honed over the course of two decades on the front lines of leading-edge tech.

Tech Pioneer
The Speaker Agency seeks only the most relevant and experienced keynote speakers, and Ms. O’Neill certainly qualifies. Kate was one of the first 100 employees at Netflix, where she developed now-standard content management and e-commerce practices. Later she founded [meta]marketer, a pioneering analytics and digital strategy agency; drove experience optimization at Magazines.com; and developed Toshiba America‘s first intranet.

Today, Kate is the founder and CEO of KO Insights, a strategic consultancy serving clients such as Google, Cisco, Etsy, Coca Cola, McDonald’s, and Kelly Services, as well as universities such as Yale and Cambridge.

Recognized Thought Leader
They are known as Thought Leaders – visionaries with novel approaches to today’s issues and an eye toward the future. These curious minds are in high demand as keynote speakers, and The Speaker Agency features the most dynamic names in the marketplace of ideas. Kate O’Neill is one of these, and her mission to help people better understand the human impact of emerging technologies has earned Kate wide recognition. She was named to the 2020 Thinkers50 Radar, a global ranking of management thinkers. Past accolades include “Technology Entrepreneur of the Year,” “Power Leader in Technology,” “Woman of Influence,” among others.

Whether she is speaking on Digital Transformation, the Internet of Things, or the human-tech relationship; engaging executives, techies, HR, sales teams, or civic leaders, this optimistic futurist “advocates for the future of humanity in an increasingly tech-driven world.”
