About Shama in San Francisco
Bringing world-class keynotes to San Francisco
San Francisco audiences have funded companies, built products, and survived multiple hype cycles. They can tell in sixty seconds whether a speaker has actually done the work. Shama Hyder has. She built a company from $1,500 to a multimillion-dollar exit. Led the first B2B firm to launch an AI app. Was among the first 2,000 users on Twitter. Her credibility isn't borrowed. It's earned.
From Dreamforce keynotes to Moscone Center tech summits to intimate boardroom sessions in SoMa, Shama brings frameworks built from 17 years of operating at the intersection of technology and business growth. Past clients include Salesforce, Adobe, Microsoft, GoHighLevel, and Bloomberg. Her session at GoHighLevel Summit earned the highest post-event rating in conference history.
Bay Area event planners book Shama when they need someone who can hold a room full of founders, CTOs, and VPs of Engineering. Not with charisma alone. With substance. Her Applied AI, growth strategy, and customer loyalty frameworks are the practical stuff your audience actually wants to hear.
