Fire Up in Silicon Valley | Meet Helene
Imagine mingling at an event in Silicon Valley and seeing a woman holding a book with your business tag line on it?

Helene's work involves harnessing the power of human intelligence and AI in teamwork and innovation. She is a champion of diversity of thought and its criticality for breaking out of 'business as usual' thinking'.
