When Lebanon’s leading voices in artificial intelligence and innovation gather under one roof, it takes more than a moderator to guide the conversation, it takes a catalyst for change.

That’s exactly what Rudy Shoushany brings to the AI in Lebanon Conference 2025, where he serves as Lead Moderator, shaping not just the discussions but the vision behind them.

With a career spanning 25 years, Shoushany has earned his place as one of the region’s most respected thinkers in digital governance, emerging technologies, and cybersecurity.

His credentials include 8x Award-Winning with membership in the Forbes Technology Council, the UN Internet Governance Forum Board, and ISACA, as well as contributions to the Harvard Business Review. Yet what truly defines his impact is a singular mission: pushing Lebanon toward meaningful digital transformation.

As the founder of DxTalks, the region’s go-to tech media platform, and BCCManagement, a consultancy driving strategic transformation across the Middle East, Shoushany is a trusted voice among public sector leaders, entrepreneurs, and global innovators.

“We don’t need buzzwords we need a plan,” says Shoushany.
“Technology is the tool. The real work is in changing culture, policies, and priorities.”

A regular mentor at AUB Innovation Park and Ignyte, a visiting lecturer at USJ, and the author of Ruling the World in My Pajamas, Shoushany bridges theory with action.

In his role as Lead Moderator at AI in Lebanon 2025, he will be present in every session, directing sharp questions, facilitating real-time insights, and ensuring that AI is not just discussed but understood, challenged, and applied.

“This is Lebanon’s moment to stop reacting and start designing its digital future,” he notes.

“If we want to compete globally, we must invest in digital literacy, AI adoption, and infrastructure now not later.”

With unmatched energy and clarity, Rudy Shoushany isn’t simply moderating Lebanon’s AI journey, he’s ensuring it accelerates in the right direction.
