About TekSummit
The GAO (Global Advanced Operations) Group started TekSummit in the year of 2021. It was an instant success. We ran it for 3 years, 2021, 2022, and 2023. We had hundreds of highly qualified speakers and thousands of attendees. We paused TekSummit in 2024 so that we could focus on our fast-growing businesses.
We have restarted it in 2025 and continue the success!
Below are partial lists of the past speakers and presentations
To accelerate the expansion of our thriving businesses in our main market, namely North America, we are very actively seeking corporate partners and individual consultants who are located in the U.S. or Canada.
