Innovation keynote speaker
Everyone has the same tools now. The edge belongs to the people bold enough to choose differently.
Real rooms. Real people. Real change.
Everyone now has the same AI, the same data and the same tools.
The only difference left is your people.
The same AI models, the same cloud platforms and the same design sprints are available to every competitor you have.
The difference now comes from people willing to make an unusual choice and stand behind it.
Most new ideas are not killed by data. They are killed in seconds, by how they are presented and by who presents them.
Innovation labs produce impressive prototypes that the core business politely ignores. What is missing is rarely technology; it is trust between the people who invent and the people who run things.
When mistakes are public and wins are shared, people learn to propose the idea nobody can object to. That is how organizations get very efficient at being average.
Innovators that trusted me, among others
Your audience has read the trend reports. What they are really asking is about themselves.
Will a machine do my job?
The better the machines get, the more your people will set you apart.
Why it lands with innovation audiences: Forever Human separates what AI makes cheap (ideas, drafts, endless variations) from what stays rare: curiosity, taste, courage and the judgment to back the one idea worth backing. That is where innovation now lives.
Why does someone else get chosen?
What your people know rarely gets them chosen. What others see in them does.
Why it lands with innovation audiences: a new idea gets accepted or rejected in the same few seconds as a new person. The Power of Choice shows innovators how to earn the trust that gets their idea funded, piloted and finally adopted.
Together with my team, I created a holographic keynote that had never been done before. Your audience experiences an innovation live instead of hearing about one.
Launching something new meant convincing skeptics, rethinking every routine and facing the question every innovator knows: will anyone actually want this? I share what it took, honestly.
I work hand in hand with your team before the event to understand where ideas get stuck in your organization. The keynote names your bottlenecks in your own language.
The Image of Leadership in Technology helps attendees present their ideas, and themselves, with the credibility that gets a yes. Forever Human, the book behind my Forever Human keynote, adds the case for human judgment in an AI world.
Innovation rooms mix inventors, skeptics and the executives who sign the budget. The keynote has to move all three.
No slides, no pre-recorded hologram beamed in from somewhere else.
I stay live in the room while your leaders, sponsors and theme step into the story.
How clients describe it, in their own words.
How clients make it their own.
I didn’t just talk about doing something new on stage. I did it, and it changed how I see innovation.
I’m Sylvie di Giusto. I spent nearly twenty years in corporations, including training audiences at BASF or Henkel in Germany, companies whose future depends on their ability to invent. Later, as a CPAE Speaker Hall of Fame keynote speaker, I decided my own industry was due for a new idea and created the world’s first 3D immersive keynote. It taught me what every innovator learns sooner or later: the idea is the easy part, getting people to choose it is the hard part. Technology and innovation teams such as Microsoft or SAP trusted me, among others, and I bring the same mix of curiosity and practicality to every innovation stage.
In their words, not ours.
Sylvie’s keynote speech was named as the best of the day; so for those who are looking for an innovative, authentic, and convincing speaker who put all her effort to make your conference great I strongly recommend Sylvie.
Memorable from visualization to content Looks like simple and obvious things. But how intelligent and insightful you are to see and say them.
We saw your presentation today and it was absolutely mesmerizing!
Her thought-provoking presentation energized the group intellectually and physically, as Sylvie had participants on their feet and interacting with each other in exercises that perfectly complemented her talk.
I am still at a loss of words for how incredible, warm, real, and engaging Sylvie is. She is truly one of, if not the best, speaker I have had the opportunity to hear and engage with.

My keynote The Power of Choice is built on The Image of Leadership, and its Technology edition, with a foreword by cyber expert John Sileo, speaks to people who work where change is constant. Great ideas still need a trusted messenger.
The book shows how appearance, behavior, communication, digital presence and environment shape whether leaders back an idea or bury it. Some clients give a copy to every attendee so the momentum lasts beyond the summit.
Generative tools made ideas, drafts and variations nearly free, so having them is no longer the edge. Forever Human shows that curiosity, taste and the courage to commit to one idea are what remain scarce.
Innovation teams come away knowing where AI speeds the work and where a human must take the risk and own the call. Many clients give a copy to everyone at their innovation summit, so the ideas follow attendees into the next pitch and the next pilot.
Sylvie di Giusto is a CPAE Speaker Hall of Fame keynote speaker who created the world’s first 3D immersive keynote, so she brings an innovation story she lived herself. Microsoft, SAP or BASF trusted her, among others, and her keynotes focus on the human choices that turn ideas into results.
Sylvie di Giusto’s 3D immersive keynote is a holographic stage show in which she interacts live with three-dimensional visuals in front of the audience. For innovation events, it turns the keynote itself into a demonstration of doing something new. The content is the same customized keynote, delivered in a format audiences rarely see.
Forever Human fits when the theme is AI and what remains uniquely human in creative work. The Power of Choice fits when the challenge is getting ideas adopted, because it shows how people earn the trust that gets a yes. Either one can be delivered in the 3D immersive format.
Yes. Sylvie di Giusto shows audiences that playing it safe is also a choice, with its own costs, and gives them practical ways to present bold ideas so decision makers can trust them. She customizes the examples to your organization’s culture.
Yes. Sylvie’s keynotes treat innovation as a human behavior rather than a department, so finance, operations, sales and HR teams take as much from them as engineers do.
Yes. Sylvie di Giusto is Austrian by birth and delivers keynotes in English and German, which helps international innovation events and European audiences.
Yes. Both keynotes are available virtual or hybrid as well as in person, and each version is customized to your theme. The 3D immersive format is designed for in-person stages.
I also serve audiences in AI, technology and leadership. See every audience I speak to.
