About this speaker
Stuart is the founder of Virtue Chain, a consultancy that works within the charity and NFP sector helping organisations develop their capability in Digital Technology and AI. He does this by focusing on people, partnerships, processes and problems – rather than on the tech.
He is the host of the regular podcast, Virtue & Virtuosity that shines a spotlight on AI Case Studies in the charity and NFP sector, ethics around AI, and lessons we can learn from previous tech waves in this sector and beyond.
Prior to Virtue Chain, Stuart worked in Senior Leadership roles leading Strategy, Technology, Data and Digital within the not-for-profit sector for over 20 years at charities including VSO, Shelter and Royal British Legion. He is Deputy Chair of Charity IT Leaders, the premiere IT and digital networking group for the UK charity and not-for-profit sector.
Stuart is a regular public speaker at industry events, and in his spare time, he enjoys cycling, running, global travel, and performing stand-up comedy.
