Danilo McGarry
Keynote Speaker

Danilo McGarry

Danilo McGarry is recognized as one of the top 20 AI leaders globally and is one of the few
who can evidence more than USD $2 billion in measurable value delivered through AI and
digital transformation. He has led some of the largest AI and digital transformation programs
across Fortune 500 and FTSE 250 organizations, where his pragmatic, results-focused
approach has consistently driven valuation growth, cost reduction, and new revenue creation
at scale. Most recently, he helped take a company from €900 million to €4.9 billion in under
four years through AI-driven transformation.

He advises governments, investors, and global enterprises on how to leverage AI while
ensuring governance and competitiveness. His methods are taught in over 100 leading
universities worldwide, and his insights are regularly featured in the Financial Times, The
Times, Bloomberg, WIRED and other global publications, where he also serves as a
columnist. He works closely with the FT Board of Directors and partners with AI giants such
as NVIDIA to push the frontier of digital transformation.

As an international keynote speaker at forums including TED and the United Nations, Danilo
has spoken live to more than 350,000 people across 40 countries and engages one of the
world’s largest professional followings in digital transformation. He also hosts a leading AI
podcast where he interviews global leaders shaping the future of business and technology.
Beyond speaking, Danilo is a practitioner who designs and delivers AI and transformation
programs end-to-end, running workshops and executing strategies through his consortium of
companies that implement and scale AI in real business environments.

If real, fast scaling and lasting impact is the goal with Ai, Danilo has shown repeatedly that
he knows how to deliver it.
