The idea

The Future is a Human Story.

And every human has one. Jos works with a simple idea: the refrigerator story. Finding yours is her whole world. And it matters more than ever: the world is changing at an exponential rate, and the people who know their own story are the ones who stay creative, clear and human in the Human+ Era.

As emerging technologies reshape our world, Jos helps audiences explore the deeper question: which tools do we want to use to build a future that is more creative, more inclusive, and more deeply human?

What’s a refrigerator story? Ask her, or come find out.

And when a keynote isn’t enough: Refrigerator Stories: A Search for Home, her solo theatrical concert with live piano. Montréal, Toronto, New York, Amsterdam and Dubai in 2026.
