Ryan Vet

Keynote Speaker: Generational Futurist & Leadership Speaker; USA TODAY Bestselling Author & Entrepreneur

Ryan Vet Biography

Ryan Vet is a generational futurist, leadership speaker, and USA TODAY bestselling author who helps organizations transform cross-generational friction into lasting momentum. A globally recognized entrepreneur, Vet has delivered more than 1,000 live presentations on four continents, reaching millions of leaders across corporate, association, and education audiences.

More than a decade before artificial intelligence reached the mainstream, Vet was already building companies at the crossroads of emerging technology and human behavior. Beginning his exploration of AI in 2010, he has spent the last twenty years founding, scaling, and advising ventures across technology, healthcare, hospitality, and media—giving him a rare, ground-level view of how innovation reshapes people, organizations, and culture.

Vet has held executive roles in companies that grew to valuations approaching $750 million and has advised organizations with a cumulative valuation exceeding $2.2 billion. His work consistently focuses on one question: How do we lead people well in times of rapid change?

Drawing on years of generational research, Vet helps leaders understand why generations think, communicate, and work the way they do—and how to turn those differences into strategic advantages. Rather than stereotypes, he brings usable patterns and cultural insights that help organizations attract, retain, and inspire talent from Boomers to Gen Z.

His insights have been featured in Forbes, USA TODAY, ABC, NBC, CBS,and other major outlets, and he serves on multiple university and nonprofit advisory boards.

Vet holds a Bachelor’s in Business Administration from Elon University, an MBA from Purdue University, and executive education in Global Business and Change Management from Harvard Business School and Cornell University.

  • I enjoyed Ryan because he told us about his exciting life and made me want to do the same. "Like it,Tweet it,Sell it" was a great workshop because it told us how social networking could really help a business. Thank you Ryan

  • Ryan spoke at a workshop for middle school student council members and their advisers, speaking in ways that both audiences were able to relate and understand. Ryan Vet gave excellent speeches and he provides lots of examples. Ryan sculpted his speeches to incorporate the workshops theme but still express the topics clearly.
    Unknown - Feb 18 2012

  • Ryan Vet is a young insightful speaker. Being able to give personal life experiences while still touching on key points of leadership qualities. His age allows him to connect with a young audience as well as a more seasoned crowd. I would recommend Ryan to any organization in need of a speaker as influential as he is. -Justice Brown North Carolina Association of Student Councils President.
