Ben Keene

From building a desert island eco-village, to reinventing book clubs, to accelerating impact careers and climate startups, Ben has explored how to use tech & community tools to make a positive change.

He has experienced success, failure and lots in between. But, he believes that an experimental, community-led approach to work is the best way to create change.

A lot of Ben Keene’s work has focused on communicating with a diverse range of people on projects across our physical and digital worlds. From an island mosque in Myanmar to a CIA conference in Las Vegas; to hundreds co-working spaces, schools and keynote stages, Ben has been lucky to share what he has learnt and help inspire others to make the most of their opportunity.

Alongside growing startups, Ben enjoys working with organisations who are ambitious about scaling their impact. He believes that bold leadership is more necessary than ever before. Whether in climate, AI, pandemics or genetic editing, we live in an ‘exponential age’ of rapid, consequential change. Decisions we make as community and business leaders (and citizens) today will reverberate like never before. This is both frightening and exciting.
