Tiffany Hall's path to enterprise project leadership started on a theater stage, managing a 60-person crew through fast-paced ensemble numbers and scene changes. That same instinct for keeping people and moving parts on cue has carried through every role since.

Over the past 7+ years, she's grown from coordinating tort claims investigations to leading enterprise-wide initiatives as an IT Business Systems Analyst Coordinator at the Nebraska State Patrol, including a ground-up rebuild of a statewide background check system handling sensitive CJIS and PII data, and a workforce management migration touching 750 employees. She's always believed the best systems are the ones people barely notice, because they just work.

Tiffany speaks on business analysis, curiosity-driven problem solving, and practical project leadership, drawing on lessons from theater, law, and enterprise IT alike. She's presented at the UKG Aspire Conference, Nebraska.Code(), and the Scenic City Summit Tech Conference, and holds a Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt along with certifications in UKG Pro Workforce Management.

I’m a cloud architect, AI consultant, entrepreneur, and community builder focused on making AI and Google Cloud work for African businesses — in our context, not through frameworks imported from elsewhere.

I lead GDG Gombe and founded Ummatore Technologies. I’ve spoken at technology events across Nigeria, South Africa, Kenya, Ghana, Tanzania, and The Gambia, and trained 3,900+ developers across Africa.

My work spans AI readiness, Google Cloud architecture, enterprise AI agents, developer training, and digital transformation. I’ve also built and deployed products including TripDial, a USSD-based transport management platform for Nigerian road transport unions, and InsightVox, an AI-powered voice analytics platform.

As a speaker, I bring practical experience from building, deploying, and advising — not just theory. My sessions focus on actionable strategies, real-world implementation, and what it takes to make cloud and AI adoption succeed in African organisations.

I'm Allan Rocha, and after more than two decades in this field, what still drives me is the moment strategy stops being a slide and starts being something a business can actually measure.

I work across the Nordics and wider Europe on enterprise transformation, where the real challenge is rarely the technology and almost always how the business runs behind it. Along the way, that work has earned 2x Microsoft Partner of the Year wins, 3x finalist recognitions, and 17 years as a Microsoft MVP, alongside a seat on both customer and partner advisory councils.

I've written four books, on project management, high-performing teams, and how mind maps and visual thinking make complex ideas land. I've spoken in 13+ countries and spent four years running a regional tech community event in Copenhagen. I'm also deep in the question of what AI really changes about project delivery, which is how I ended up building one of the first AI agents made for the field.

I was born in 1977 in Turin, Italy, into a working-class family with roots in Puglia.
I taught myself to read and do multi-digit arithmetic before starting school, and ended up skipping first grade. Writing has always been my weak spot, along with set theory and coloring inside the lines. I'm still working on the handwriting; I eventually made peace with set theory through relational databases.
I studied engineering but never finished my degree: I'll always have 11 exams and an English credit to my name. Close enough for the nameplate.
I started my career in 1999 as a software developer, and have spent most of it writing backend code in C, C++, C# and SQL. Over the years I've worked across some very different domains: I spent a decade at a software company, then moved to Banca Sella's Trading Online division in Biella, then landed at Deltatre, a dream job building software for major sporting events including the UEFA European Championship, the FIFA World Cup, and the Olympics. In 2013 I built a Twitter social poll to vote for Man of the Match during the World Cup; the software worked flawlessly, even if the marketing didn't quite match.
In 2018 I took on a new challenge: building a web-based ERP platform from scratch. I named it Fattutto, and it's what I still work on today, with a small and very capable remote team. The pandemic didn't change much for us: we were already working from home.
Alongside development, I've been involved in tech community and communication for years. I collaborate with Codemotion, help run the Torino .NET Users Group, and co-host the "Bonanni a tutti", a yearly show/conference about and around computer science, located in Turin, after Christmas holidays.
Outside of tech: I'm a football coach (since 2008), I play keyboard, and I write about Juventus on Facebook. Since July 2022 I've been living with two coronary stents, which makes me feel like a lucky guy. As I like to say: out of ten things I've attempted, half of them worked out. I spend my life looking for the other half.
