Jeremiah Owyang

I have been an active professional in the business and technology sectors in Silicon Valley. As a founder, CMO, industry analyst, and public speaker, I am passionate about discovering the next technology trend, explaining it, and helping it become deployed worldwide. My career arc has spanned web2, sharing economy, web3, and autonomous/AI technologies. I examine emerging technologies in terms of growth, opportunity, and changing consumer behaviors and expectations. I began my career as an analyst at Forrester Research and later transitioned to Altimeter Group as a Founding Partner. In 2013, I established Catalyst Companies to concentrate on the emerging collaborative economy and the maker movement. I also co-founded Kaleido Insights. In 2022, I took on the role of CMO at a web3 project called RLY Network Association, funded by a16z, Coinbase Ventures, Battery, and others. I have appeared in publications such as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, USA Today, and Fast Company. I have published research reports, playbooks, and frameworks to help businesses navigate change, enhance customer experiences, and identify trends before they happen. I frequently speak and present at conferences and events worldwide, including global conferences, corporate kickoffs, TED stages, Web Summit, and host events around the world.
