About
Once upon a time, in a galaxy not so far away, a young Julie Holmes discovered a Commodore 64 and fell head over heels for technology. Fast-forward a few decades (and countless gadgets later), and this gifted geek has become a force for good in the enterprise tech world. Today, she’s on a mission to help organizations everywhere “Tech It Up a Level” one fun-filled, mind-blowing keynote at a time.
For over 25 years, Julie’s been a force to be reckoned with in the ever-evolving world of enterprise tech. From leading giants like PeopleSoft and Oracle to blazing trails at scrappy startups, she’s seen it all. With a proven track record of spearheading next-generation products and bridging the gap between complex tech and real-world applications, she’s the translator you need to turn tech-speak into business wins.
Dry lectures and confusing jargon? Not on Julie’s watch! This veteran speaker has a knack for making AI and cutting-edge tech as engaging as the latest TikTok trend. With infectious humor, killer insights, and real-world examples, she inspires audiences worldwide to embrace innovation and become “AI-powered.”
Julie’s not just a talker, she’s a doer. Her inventions, from sleek Bluetooth microphones to user-friendly CRM systems, are loved by businesses in over 60 countries. Even now, she’s as a key player in a cutting-edge AI/computer vision startup as well as developing practical AI apps that solve real-world problems. There’s no need to wait for the future – Julie’s already building it and she can’t wait to show how great it’s going to be for all of us!
Julie’s passion for technology is matched only by her commitment to learning and teaching. With a couple of degrees and a stack of professional certifications in leadership, innovation, and strategy, she’s always expanding her knowledge and skills. Nowadays, she also makes time to find and test all the latest AI apps and ideas. By staying ahead of the latest tech trends, Julie ensures that her insights are always fresh, relevant, and actionable. If you want to compare app lists, she’s all in!
Offstage, Julie is as down-to-earth as they come. She splits her time between the USA and UK, when she’s not traveling the world speaking. At home, you can find her teaching adorable Hungarian Vizslas ridiculous tricks (that sometimes show up in her keynotes) or training them in agility (where they rarely win but always have fun). Or, she might be at a pub quiz with her biggest fan – her super-smart husband, Paul.
