Event Introduction
Please use the below introduction when introducing me on stage, but feel free to adjust it if need be:
Ladies and Gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts! We're about to journey into the future without leaving our seats. Our guide? A man who has probably seen the future himself and who makes artificial intelligence and emerging technologies as comprehensible as your [morning] coffee. He's ranked as the world's best futurist by Global Gurus and he has advised governments and corporations around the world, but for the next [40 minutes], he is all yours. Not just a futurist, but a 'strategic' futurist, here to unscramble our minds and give us the playbook on how you can embrace [artificial intelligence] to improve your business. Salesforce names him as one of just 16 (human) voices shaping the future of AI. Let’s give a warm welcome to the futurist who’s not just predicting the future but empowering us to build it—Dr. Mark van Rijmenam!
