That’s amazing! Why Storytelling is Crucial to Tech, Business, and the World

Scott Knaster

Scott Knaster has been “adjacent to greatness” through some of the most important moments in modern technology history while working for Apple, Microsoft, General Magic, Google and others. Throughout his journey, he’s come to realize how incredibly important the art of storytelling is to our lives in tech, business, and even personally. In this keynote, Scott will not only share some amazing stories, but he will help us all recognize the power of storytelling. Scott will show how you can bring out the stories that you may not even realize that you have, and tell them in a way that will support everything you do.
