Keynote Speaker & Technology Executive
Josh Siddon
Josh Siddon has spent three decades leading technology through digital transformations, turnarounds, and M&A — from casino floors to a $1.3B retailer to an S&P 500 multifamily REIT. He speaks from operational experience, not vendor slides: what it actually takes to modernize infrastructure, secure it, and bring a team through the change without losing them. Founder & Principal of ResiQ, an independent technology infrastructure advisory.
“I speak because too many technology decisions get made by people who’ve never had to run what they’re deciding on. I’ve been on the network floor and in the security operations center — not just the boardroom — and that’s the voice I bring to every stage.”
