How do I book Velco?

Use the enquiry form or write to speaking@dargentic.com. Include the event, date, city, audience size and the format you have in mind.

What does a keynote cost?

Fees depend on format, date and travel. Enquire for fees and availability.

What is NEURAL about?

NEURAL: How Brain-Computer Interfaces Will Redefine Commerce and Power is Velco’s book, published by Fast Company Press in 2027. It is a strategic playbook for leaders, investors and policy makers navigating the neural age. More at neuralthebook.com.

Who are good BCI and neurotech keynote speakers?

It depends on what the event needs. A few names worth knowing:

  • Tan Le, co-founder of EMOTIV, speaks about neurotechnology from the founder’s side.
  • Nita Farahany of Duke University speaks on neuroethics and the law.
  • Researchers and clinicians speak at scientific meetings such as the BCI Society meeting, on the research itself.

Velco Dar covers a different lane: how neurotechnology changes business in every industry, for leaders, investors and policy makers. If your audience needs the commercial and policy view rather than the lab or clinical view, that is where he fits.
