In this episode of #TheSpeakerShow, Sean Pillot de Chenecey interviews the strategist, digital anthropologist, and best-selling author Rahaf Harfoush, who focuses on the intersections of emerging technology, innovation, and digital culture. An engaging and passionate speaker, Rahaf has been sharing her insights on technology and innovation since 2006 and has spoken at over 70 keynotes worldwide.
