Traveling the world. Sharing knowledge. Inspiring people
In the next three months, they will be very intense and exciting months for me.
In September, I will see my third daughter coming to the world. In October and November, I will have the opportunity to perform a long series of International Conferences and Summits as a speaker, talking about Artificial Intelligence, sharing knowledge, meeting some of the most relevant professionals in the field, and building valuable connections across the globe.
At the beginning of October, I will speak at the Intelligence Automation Exchange Summit in London, UK. I will be at the Industry 4.0 conference in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. At the Impact Mobility Revolution in Katowice, Poland, after that, I will meet the Gotha of Artificial Intelligence at the World Summit AI in Amsterdam, in The Netherlands. I will talk about Autonomous Vehicles and AI at the TechFika in Wroclaw, Poland.
On November I will be showcasing our AI & Ml Center of Excellence’s achievements at the Volvo Competence Day in Wroclaw, Poland, then I will fly to Romania, to speak at the Codiax on 21st November in Cluj, then I will be the host and organizer of the AI Wroclaw 2019 on next 27th November at the Wroclaw’s Stadium to finish the season with the AI Summit 2019 on next 28th November in Seoul, South Korea.
It’s always a pleasure and an honor for me to travel the world, all while sharing my passion and expertise with open-minded and interesting people, meeting the world’s top AI and business experts to gather cutting-edge information and research, discussing and sharing case studies, and collecting new business experiences to put in practice in my daily work.
Speaking gigs are not that easy to get and to be at the good ones, it is necessary to demonstrate to be a rock-solid subject matter expert with real credentials in the field, and of course, is needed to keep your knowledge up-to-date.
I’ve been working long hours during my weekends and long nights to make this passion come true, and I’m pretty happy to see some results.
Communication is the backbone of my profession. It allows me to build my connections, it has influenced many of my career decisions and has motivated many changes.
Thanks to my communication skills, I believe I had the opportunity to progress in the working world and in my life, itself, living abroad during the last 20 years, learning and speaking 5 languages.
Public speaking has been recognized as a natural way in terms of positioning as a thought leader within a given industry. Of course, if you want to be a leader, you must know how to communicate because people search for leaders who can inspire them and leaders who express their ideas effectively.
For me, every speaking opportunity is an opportunity to grow in leadership, influence, and expertise.
Having the opportunity to inspire and influence people that are taking time out of their busy heads to listen to my thoughts on the world always put me in a position to create real positive change in people’s lives.
I hope to see you in the first row, somewhere.
