Book Joey to speak with your group

Software innovation isn’t just a buzz phrase, it’s the key to survival. 

Picture a mass of tiny drones swarming together to take down a larger, lumbering enemy vehicle. This is not a scene from the movies - it's today’s reality. It's also an unmissable lesson for leaders regarding how quickly a group of five or fifteen or twenty, smart people in a one room office can take down an entire industry.

Enter Joseph Knecht, sharing the lessons and strategies he's learned firsthand from his vantage point inside the trenches of daily business. As a time-tested entrepreneur and investor in multiple companies, Joseph [Joey] masterfully captures audiences by disrupting the overused and complacent definition of innovation, then leading them to discover his success-driven path to save their businesses from the impending threat of competitors. He insires his listeners, and arms them with a toolset they can use to preserve their companies or to be the disruptor in their industries.

Book Joey to speak at your next event and your audience will walk away understanding how to swiftly harness the power of innovation and leverage software-as-a-service (SaaS) to counter the threats aimed at your business and your industry.
