Charles Reed Anderson makes technology make sense.

As a global keynote speaker, he helps business leaders cut through buzzwords and hype to understand what emerging technologies actually mean for their organisations.

Whether it’s AI, GenAI, digital twins, IoT, or the latest industry term, Charles translates technical complexity into clear, practical insights that non-technical executives can immediately act on.

Across 30+ years in the US, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, Charles has led go-to-market strategies for every major technology shift — from enterprise mobility and cloud to IoT, smart cities, Industry 4.0, and now AI.

This hands-on global experience gives him a rare perspective: he knows what works, what fails, and why so many organisations struggle to turn technological potential into measurable outcomes.

His value lies in independence. After senior roles with McKinsey, major telecommunications firms, and a top-tier analyst house, he has nothing to sell, no vendor bias, and no technology agenda. His job is simple: make complex technology accessible — not by dumbing it down, but by making it meaningful, relevant, and actionable.

Charles has delivered 300+ keynotes in 25+ countries — from TEDx to major global conferences — for clients including Samsung, Microsoft, Cisco, Bosch, and Vodafone.

Whether addressing travel and retail executives, manufacturing leaders, or industrial strategists, he tailors his insights to the specific challenges and opportunities each audience faces.

He also hosts TechBurst Talks, a podcast that cuts through the hype with no-nonsense conversations about AI, emerging technologies, and what’s really happening behind the headlines.
