As we approach the end-of-year strategy rush, it’s clear that standing still isn’t an option—especially in B2B tech.

Jeffrey A. Barnes, founder of The Wisdom of Walt (The Wisdom of Walt Profile), brings Disney’s legacy of creative vision, transformative leadership, and fearless innovation to tech audiences. At Software Oasis Bootcamp, Barnes reveals how to apply Walt Disney’s “great big beautiful tomorrow” mindset to empower digital transformation and future-focused strategy. "You can never stay stuck in the past—you have to keep moving forward. Tomorrow’s edge goes to those who see technology as a way to tell new stories, not just polish old ones." — Jeffrey A. Barnes, The Wisdom of Walt
John JB Russell, founder of Digital Womble (Digital Womble Profile), brings 25 years of data-driven SEO, AI-powered search, and digital marketing insights to fast-growth SaaS, B2B, and agency brands. At Software Oasis Bootcamp, Russell reveals the discipline that consistently turns lost web traffic into high-quality, intent-aligned visitors—and predictable new revenue.

Win by focusing on keywords with the right intent, content structure for AI, and proactive indexing—the simplest growth lever most SaaS teams ignore." — John JB Russell, Director, Digital Womble
Chris Hood, founder of CH Digital (CH Digital Profile), is a two-time bestselling author, Google innovation advisor, and leading voice on customer-centric AI.

"People don’t care if it’s AI—they care if it works. Customer-centric innovation means putting tech to work solving problems, not just selling hype." — Chris Hood, Founder, CH Digital
