Denis Atlan intervient comme conférencier et conseiller auprès de dirigeants qui veulent sortir du discours vague sur “l’IA” pour se concentrer sur ce qui produit réellement du résultat. Basé à Lyon, il travaille avec des TPE, PME et ETI qui cherchent à gagner en productivité, en qualité de service et en clarté stratégique grâce à l’IA générative et à l’automatisation. Il a piloté plus de 200 projets IA sur le terrain, dans des contextes très différents : prospection commerciale, service client, back-office, reporting, finance, marketing, RH. Cette expérience alimente une base de données de retours d’usage et un travail de formalisation qu’il a structuré dans un livre consacré à l’IA en entreprise, ainsi que dans des contenus audio et des formations. En conférence, Denis privilégie les cas concrets, les démonstrations live et les repères simples pour décider : quels usages prioriser, quels risques surveiller, comment organiser la coopération entre humains et IA. Son style est direct, pédagogique et orienté décision : il aide les équipes dirigeantes à clarifier où l’IA crée de la valeur, et où elle ne fera que consommer du temps et de l’énergie.

Gerd’s passions are the future of humanity, culture, society, and business in the face of exponential technological progress. In a world dominated by technology, data and algorithms, robots and intelligent machines, what will it mean to be human? Are humans and machines really destined to ‘converge’? What do we need to do, today, to make sure that human happiness and collective flourishing remain the most important objectives? Is our current economic system suitable for a future were technology is virtually unlimited? In his keynotes, talks, presentations, and seminars, Gerd addresses topics such as digital ethics (the ethics of technology), artificial intelligence (AI), the future of work and jobs, rebooting education, the digital transformation of business and society, the future of politics, and many more, focusing on the next 5-10 years.

Mats Lewan is an international speaker, futurist, moderator, author and journalist based in Stockholm, Sweden, focusing on digitalisation and technology as a powerful driving force for change that will transform our lives and our society forever in the next few decades—far more than most people realizes. As a SPEAKER, Mats makes you see and understand how the pace of change is accelerating, how all industries will be hit by digital revolution like the music industry was, how every business will have to adapt to survive, how most of us will see our jobs being completely transformed or eliminated, and that machines might become super intelligent. People listening often say they’re shaken-up but also inspired by the tools Mats provides to prepare for, and take part in this powerful and fundamental change. Mats' talks are in English, Swedish or Italian, and they have been appreciated by renowned institutions and organizations such as Karolinska Institutet, Telia Sonera, Toyota and MoneySuperMarket.com. Mats regularly also work as a MODERATOR at technology focused events such as SAP Innovation Forum and Open Text Innovation Day. With deep knowledge from many tech industries, and WITH a long experience of being on stage, Mats can help making your conference or your inspiration day a successful event, asking the right questions that make speakers open up new perspectives, while also engaging with your audience, making the atmosphere relaxed and hearty. As an AUTHOR, Mats elaborates the technology theme further, weaving it into what his readers say are captivating stories. His latest book 'An Impossible Invention' covers the amazing and ongoing story of the Italian inventor Andrea Rossi and his energy device the E-Cat, possibly based on cold fusion—an energy source that could provide clean water to Planet Earth, zero-emission vehicles with unlimited mileage, a solution to the climate crisis and much more. The catch is that it has been considered physically impossible since an infamous and erroneously rejected scientific claim in 1989. As a science and technology JOURNALIST since 20 years, Mats focuses on making complicated stuff easy to grasp, and also on putting it into context, showing what it might mean—to our society, to businesses and to our lives. Mats has been working as a senior staff writer at Ny Teknik, Stockholm, Sweden—the major technology weekly in Scandinavia, and at CBS Cnet News in San Francisco. Mats' favorite quote: Like all revolutionary new ideas, the subject has had to pass through three stages, which may be summed up by these reactions: (1) ‘It’s crazy – don’t waste my time.’ (2) ‘It’s possible, but it’s not worth doing.’ (3) ‘I always said it was a good idea.’ (Arthur C. Clarke)

My career in technology and entrepreneurship stems from a great early-age foundation I got from my engineer dad. Although life went somewhat off the rails after his death when I was 11, I got back on track later; by the age of 24, I was already teaching post-grad computer science. Soon afterwards I ventured into entrepreneurship, in pursuit of lasting beneficial impact in the world. In the process of maturing as an entrepreneur I have drifted into being a sought-after public speaker, facilitating scores of workshops and delivering digestible yet informative talks and lectures on emerging technologies to diverse audiences internationally. As a keynote speaker, I have presented for Ericsson, Credit Suisse, MIT and many, many others. I have taught and presented in India, Morocco, Chile, Brazil, the Nordics, the United Kingdom and across America. I have built a track record as being insightful, imaginative, and broadly-aware, as well as an effective communicator and mentor, who can make complex subjects able to be understood by all. My work is covered by Wired, BBC, The Guardian, Forbes, Vice, and others. I have a core belief that technology can (and should) be leveraged to free us from the saddest aspects of the human condition. It is this same wellspring of passion that I seek to ignite within others. Selected talks and lectures: ♦ Ericsson R&D Summit 2015 - The CEO is an AI: Distributed Autonomous Organisations ♦ Hello Tomorrow, Paris 2015 - Startup Judge, Moderator: Welcome to New Realities ♦ Athena Retreat, Chile 2015 - The Founder Virtue ♦ The Effective Altruism Retreat, San Francisco 2014 - Overcoming Obstacles ♦ Media Evolution Conference, Malmö 2014 - Helping Machines to Understand Humans Read more about my thoughts at www.nellwatson.com Read more about me at www.nellwatson.com/about
