Justin Reilly is regularly booked to engage audiences at events, read their latest feedback below:
“Justin was great. A piece of feedback my colleague received from an attendee said it all: He was the best speaker he’s heard in this subject and applied it perfectly for the members. It’s not easy to have a mixed audience of those who get it (at least a little) – our engineers and IT folks – and those who have little/no extensive knowledge of it – our directors. He had people stay after both sessions to chat with him, and he graciously spoke with each of them.”
“Justin has a power to capture the audience within seconds and keep their undivided attention until the very last moment. He’s delivered a great session on setting up an AI strategy with practical insight on what guarantees success. He is a fantastic speaker with an approachable presence, who generates plenty of questions and discussion, and is generally delightful to work with.”
“Justin not only captivated the audience with his cutting-edge content and interactive delivery; he managed to engage the audience throughout by both responding to questions and asking ones of his own, leading to stimulating and high-energy discussions. Needless to say, participants were talking about his session well after the talks ended.”
“Justin consistently provides unique, value-added insights to our most sophisticated digital audiences. His style is engaging and fresh and always is rated as a top speaker at our events. We always look forward to welcoming Justin back to our stage.”
