She is generous with her time and Out in Tech is lucky to collaborate with her.”

“Avantha is the speaker you want on your panels – she speaks from experience and heart and has an amazing way of tying together data and personal insights. She knows how to connect with the audience too. Avantha is always the panelist that the audience wants to swarm after an event (in a good way).”
— Maryn Jeurgens, Eden
Get in touch to connect with Avantha on all kinds of speaking engagements. She primarily focuses on extemporaneous speaking and has done so through panels, fireside chats, and podcasts, but is open to any kind of opportunity.
She covers a number of topics on business and organizations— particularly on the state of tech and CPG industries, how to scale companies, and connecting diversity and HR to business strategy. She has also been tapped often to speak about her own personal experience as a transgender woman of color in tech and business.
Speaking fees are scaled to size of business/opportunity, but are comped for non-profit organizations.
