Jerre Maas from Tilburg is a conference host, presenter, quizmaster, moderator and keynote speaker. He studied Social Psychology at Tilburg University (MSc, 2010) and co-founded livewall more than 15 years ago, the creators of the audience interaction platform PresentersWall. He is a partner at United Playgrounds and builds AI products with MACH8 and Protohyped, such as Harrie (an AI HR assistant for SMEs), Sparkie (an AI sidekick for conference hosts) and EchoSphere (live summaries of table conversations). He is also the founder of PsyBlog.nl, the Dutch-language psychology blog, which has been running since 2006. He began looking for ways to get the audience involved early in his stage career. His motto: "I host events for the participants, not the organisation." Every event starts with a good briefing, and the audience gets involved from minute one through live polls, propositions, audience questions and games. Clients include ASML, Rabobank, Nationale-Nederlanden, Mars/Wrigley, VNO-NCW, the Province of North Brabant, the Municipality of Tilburg, UWV, Veilig Verkeer Nederland and universities such as Tilburg University, TU Eindhoven and TU Delft. He lives in Tilburg and works throughout the Netherlands and Flanders.

Entrepreneurship means changing direction

From conference host to event software to AI, on spotting opportunities and continuing to build.

Build instead of meeting

Go from idea to working prototype in a day with AI.

The brain behind decisions

Bias, peer pressure and why we do what we do.

The future of work is human

What technology takes over, and where people become more important.
