About Alpesh Doshi
Beyond technology, Alpesh’s focus is people. Every organisation he works with faces the same human challenge: fear about job loss, role change and what AI means for careers. He speaks candidly about leading cultural change — not promising that jobs disappear, but showing how to retrain and re-skill people to work differently. His real-world case studies, including transforming 700 engineers at a FTSE 250 company and clearing a two-year backlog, give audiences the frameworks and confidence to lead change rather than fear it.
What sets Alpesh apart is range. He delivers deeply technical sessions for CTOs and architects, and strategic, plain-language keynotes for boards and senior leaders who need to understand AI’s practical implications without the jargon. He presents regularly to CEOs and investors and is a sought-after voice for private equity, financial services, insurance and retail audiences.
He also tackles the issues senior leaders are too often “too afraid to ask” about: runaway AI costs and FinOps, AI governance and compliance, and how to move from experimentation to measurable outcomes. Alpesh leaves audiences informed, reassured and equipped to act
