Josh Klein Biography

Josh Klein is a passionate hacker of all things. He examines systems, he takes them apart, and he puts different pieces together to produce something new and more effective. He hacks. Everything. His list includes social systems, computer networks, institutions, consumer hardware, animal behavior, and many more. Klein knows that the greatest innovations come from rethinking ordinary situations, or hacking; a do-it-yourself movement with roots inside the engineering community.

Klein started as a technology hacker in his parent’s basement and ended up working with leaders at the upper echelon of business, government, and internet security. Along the way it became clear that a tipping point in new technology was changing commerce as we knew it in a myriad of ways.

From quantum computing to cryptocurrencies to AI’s impact on business, from the radical departures in exchange and marketing enabled by Big Data to the as-yetunrealized impact of 3D printing and the Internet of Things, Klein has specialized in translating technology insights into actionable strategies for business leaders.

Josh Klein Speaking Topics

INNOVATION IN PRACTICE

Buying a startup, hiring hot talent, or licensing a new technology usually doesn’t do organizations any good - because they’re mishandled. Learn how world-changing technologies like E-Commerce, Mobile, and Big Data were used correctly... and badly. Real-world examples from the front lines of transformative technologies show you the pitfalls to avoid along with how they can be managed by organizations at any stage to produce significant new growth.

HUMAN CAPITAL... ISN’T

Covid took the concept of talent and put it on overdrive, making top talent even harder to find or keep and bad apples impossible to remove. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Come learn what the rise of remote work, hybrid work, and changing expectations from truly innovative employees can mean for your organization, from exploiting synchronies in cross-compatible new currencies to aligning meaning and motivation.

PEOPLE VS ROBOTS - HOW BOTH WILL WIN

The question is... how? From the gig economy to fully automated luxury capitalism, society is only just starting to respond to the tidal wave of disruption new technologies represent. Dig into the impact AI, Robotics, and Biologicals will have on your job and the work of your employees, and learn how to get ahead of the risk - and your competition - in maximizing the under-considered opportunities the shift to hyper-human skilling represents.

META VS GOEBBLES: HOW DOES TECH CONTROL US?

We know we’re more predictable than we suspect, but what does the scale and scope of data about us – as employees and consumers – mean for the evolution of business? Learn about the responsibilities this will entail, the risks of getting it wrong, and how to positively bring the impending era of hyper personalized modeling to bear on your existing (and future) markets.

THE INTERNET OF THINGS + AI

Distributed sensor networks (i.e., the IoT + AI) are changing how people live, what they buy, and how they relate. But nobody is closely examining what happens when you mix them together. This talk explores the two main sociopolitical directions that are taking off in exploiting the impossibly powerful mix of real-time, where-you-are algorithmic intelligence - and what it means for your business.
