Joe Toscano

Keynote Speaker: Founder of Design Good & Author of "Automating Humanity"

Joe Toscano Biography

Joe Toscano is an award-winning designer, published author, and international keynote speaker who left his role consulting for Google because he felt the industry was misusing data and that the issues needed to be addressed through innovation rather than strict regulation.

Since leaving, Toscano has written a book, called “Automating Humanity,” and has started DataGrade, both focused on increasing technology literacy and integrity-based innovation.

You may recognize Toscano as a featured expert from “The Social Dilemma” on Netflix; as the speaker in his TEDx Talk, “Want to work for Google? You already do,” or from myriad appearances on national news broadcasts within the US and abroad.
