Bring Clarity to Your Team, Your Board, or Your Audience.
Steve delivers engaging sessions on GenAI for both technical and non-technical audiences. Grounded in real-world experience, not vendor talking points.
Real Experience. No Vendor Agenda.
There's no shortage of AI speakers. There's a real shortage of AI speakers who have actually done the work at the enterprise level.
Steve Harris has 35 years of technology leadership behind him, with the past several years focused entirely on real-world GenAI adoption — strategy, governance, deployment, and training — across more than 30 organizations.
He's a co-founder of the VIATEC AI Meetup and helped launch the VIATEC Victoria AI Conference, Prompt. He speaks the language of the C-suite and the language of the technical team, and he knows how to translate between them.
He's also certified across Microsoft, AWS, Google, and IBM — with no product to sell. That means every session is grounded in what's actually useful, not what serves a vendor's agenda.
