Usually, when you think to a “Technical topic” you think to a boring thing intriguing a very restricted number of interested parties. I strongly believe, and I have practical evidences, that this is not true! In every themes, in every technical areas, there is something to learn and something useful to map to your personal space or interest and extend it, even if your interest and job is miles away from them.
So, the problem, in many cases, is not the content but how it is communicated.
My speeches are anchored in my activities and research and the insights I gain from working with clients, students, successful startups, and influential executives. I analyze emerging technology trends in how businesses can harness the power to transform (digital)data into insights and ultimately their businesses and translate in practical and comprehensible terms.
I am often invited to share my vision of the future of technology, data, artificial intelligence and more. My talks take companies beyond the traditional economy, rethinking business in digital age leveraging data. Some of my recent speech titles include:
- Combining Research & Business
- IT Research & Innovation & Strategy
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
- Big Data & Big Data Analytics
I want my audiences to understand the implications of data, small and big, and the ways you leverage it with Analytics and Artificial Intelligence.
I stimulate the audience to rethink the role of data and the ability to generate insights both within their organizations and beyond.
List of Talks to Public Events & Conferences
Corporate events
In addition to speaking at top technical and business conferences and teaching about data, analytics and artificial intelligence.
I present at client events and lead workshops for innovative firms. Levering my experience as chief scientist at IBM Italy Research & Business and IBM Italy CTO for Artificial Intelligence, I show the audience how to create a culture of data-driven decision making and gain insights from data according to multiple perspectives. Companies appreciate my deep technical understanding about analytics and artificial intelligence and the ability to combine a research vision with practical business needs.
I practiced my technical knowledge for several industries in which data paly a significant role including large corporations well innovative companies such as:
- Coca-Cola,
- Pfizer,
- EnelX,
- Pirelli,
- Banca Popolare di Milano,
- Edison,
- Renault,
- Generali
- J&J Janssen
- Wind
I have been engaged with these companies range from large customer conferences and leadership events to private executive briefings. Full details are here: https://pieroleo.com/invited-talks-to-company-events/
