ZOE EATHER

Humanising Smart Cities

Futurist, Innovation & Technology Speaker | Australia

ZOE’S SHOWREEL

Change is happening whether we are involved or not.  And there is enormous pressure for industry, government, and their agencies to get involved with the Smart Cities movement. However, the current approach to Smart Cities inadvertently create barriers for a better future because it can focus on technology for the sake of technology. 

A multi award-winning engineer, Churchill Fellow and data scientist with extensive global experience, Zoe takes the overwhelm out of the technology conversation.

The Keynote:

Zoe’s methodology will empower audiences to think differently, ignite new ideas and unlock their potential to adapt in an ever changing world. Zoe will leave the audience with useful tools which they can use immediately to shape a future they want to live, work and play in.  

Keynote Takeaways:

  • Shifting our mindset is what leads to real change and innovation

  • A people first approach to using technology and data to make better decisions and thrive

  • Letting go of the ordinary to be extraordinary

  • “Zoe is Amazing!”

    “Zoe is amazing at bringing people together, inspiring change through collaboration and fresh thinking…with strong technical expertise to back her up!”

    Priscilla Radice, CEO, Infrastructure Association Queensland, AUS

    “It was a session where not only did she deliver information and share knowledge, also interactively did a workshop where everyone was engaged and really thinking outside the box for solutions around Smart Communities.”

    Beau Mills, Executive Director, North Carolina Metropolitan Mayors Coalition, USA

  • “Zoe brings a different perspective.”

  • “One of our favourite ‘go to’ people”

    “Zoe was one of our favourite ‘go to’ people for our program due to her broad range of domestic and international engineering experiences, her 100% reliability, [the fact that she is] fast and easy to communicate with, and the passion, knowledge and humour she brings to her work.”
