Dan Sodergren is one of the UK's most in-demand keynote speakers on AI, the Future of Work, and the Fifth Industrial Revolution. A BBC technology expert, author of 11 books, and a two-time TEDx speaker, he has spent over two decades helping organisations understand, adopt, and govern emerging technology in ways that strengthen human potential rather than replace it.
His signature frameworks, including the Fifth industrial Revolution, The Four Intelligences (Artificial, Emotional, Independent, Organisational), the SCALE Framework, and the Automated Intern concept, give audiences tools they can use the next morning. Where others talk theory, Dan delivers clarity. He consistently achieves audience satisfaction scores above 90% and has been named to the Top 101 Global Employee Engagement and Experience Influencers list for three consecutive years.
A serial tech entrepreneur and past co-Founder of YourFLOCK, an HR AI tech company, Dan has delivered keynotes for organisations including Kellogg's, JCDecaux, IHG, Co-op, Signify, ONS, MBNL, Amcham Lab Global, and Sododex. His TEDx talk "The Future of Work" has been viewed over 15,000 times. He has a combined audience of over 28k on LinkedIn (and almost 30K on X), and his Future of Work Friday newsletter reaches more than 8,000 subscribers weekly. He has appeared on BBC Breakfast, The One Show, BBC Watchdog, and Rip Off Britain and most UK television stations.
Whether your event focuses on AI adoption, leadership, work culture, or the technology trends reshaping your sector, Dan will energise, challenge, and equip your audience with the confidence to lead in the age of the Fifth Industrial Revolution.

"Dan Sodergren brought a refreshing perspective to our Amcham Lab Global masterclass on the future of work. Across 90+ leaders from innovation, strategy, and culture teams, the response was exceptional—4.9/5 average rating. What set Dan apart: He didn't lead with AI capabilities or deployment speed. Instead, he started with a fundamental question about human meaning and purpose—then showed how emotional intelligence and leadership discipline are prerequisites for successful AI integration, not afterthoughts. His Wizard of Oz analogy perfectly captured the tension between 'tech solutions' and 'human problems,' and his message resonated across roles and cultures: AI amplifies the leadership culture you already have. Before deploying tools, audit your foundation. For organizations serious about leading through this transition, Dan provides both the strategic framework and the diagnostic rigor to get it right. He's a rare combination of visionary thinking and practical business acumen." - Carlos, Innovation Lab Leader, Amcham Lab Global
"Dan delivered an excellent session on the Fifth Industrial Revolution for our IHG Emerging Leaders, achieving 94% satisfaction from an international audience of senior hotel operators. He adapted seamlessly his content around AI and the Future of work for our attendees and delivered strategic value that resonated strongly. Professional, flexible, and highly knowledgeable." - Carly, Senior Director Operations & Engagement, EMEAA, IHG Owners Association
“"We invited Dan to speak to 60 SME owners and directors at our Christmas business growth event. He surveyed the room beforehand and tailored his talk to exactly where our members were with AI. The feedback was outstanding: 92% rated him 4 or 5 stars, and several members have already asked about AI training. If you're looking for someone to cut through the AI noise and give your audience practical, honest guidance, I'd highly recommend him." - David, CEO, Henley Coaching Partnership
