Collin Hogue-Spears is a Senior Director at Black Duck Software, where he leads FedRAMP authorization and global compliance work. He also leads product strategy for Context AI, Black Duck's vulnerability intelligence platform for AI coding assistants and cloud security ecosystems. He has more than 20 years in technology, including AWS GovCloud, where his team secured authorization for $3B in public-sector workloads.

His forthcoming book, From Lab to Life: How AI Works in China (Gatekeeper Press, Summer 2026), examines how China built the world's first governed AI ecosystem, where capability, compliance, and distribution became inseparable. Drawing on Chinese-language regulatory texts, company filings, and technical sources, the book explains how AI governance functions as market infrastructure rather than paperwork after the fact.

He writes and speaks on AI governance, software supply chain security, nation-state cyber operations, and the security risks created when autonomous systems gain enterprise access. He has been quoted in Politico, Dark Reading, CIO.com, and CSO Online. He works from Chinese-language primary sources and focuses on the intersection of regulation, security, and technology deployment.

I’m a strategist and systems thinker who helps organizations rethink how they build and live with technology, bridging the gap between innovation and execution with clarity, purpose, and just enough rebellion. My work focuses less on tools and more on how people and organizations think, especially as AI reshapes how work gets done.

I’ve led digital transformation and AI initiatives across government, healthcare, education, and enterprise environments, often in moments of ambiguity, constraint, and rapid change. I specialize in untangling complexity, surfacing hidden assumptions, and helping organizations design systems that can adapt, rather than break, the moment priorities shift.

In my talks, I blend systems strategy, organizational insight, and storytelling to challenge how we define “future-ready” technology. Because the real challenge with AI isn’t capability, it’s whether the systems we build can move with change, and whether humans are still allowed room for judgment, context, and evolution inside them.
