Simon Moritz

Simon Moritz is more than a technologist—he’s a visionary at the intersection of AI, innovation leadership, and human potential. With over 20 years of experience driving digital transformation at global giant Ericsson, Simon brings a rare blend of deep technical expertise and inspiring leadership insight. He was one of Ericsson’s pioneering data scientists—well before AI, mobile apps, or smart tech became mainstream—filing breakthrough patents in AI, Machine Learning, and early smartphone technologies when they were still considered science fiction.

Simon has helped lead the evolution from 3G to 5G, shaping the infrastructure that powers our digital lives. His work has touched everything from autonomous vehicles to IPTV, and from proprietary AI models to large-scale industry innovation clouds. He played a key role in launching Sweden’s first autonomous 5G bus and co-architected the national Drive Sweden Innovation Cloud—bringing together government, academia, and industry to shape the future.

But Simon’s superpower isn’t just tech—it’s turning complexity into clarity and competition into collaboration. He empowers leaders to thrive in the AI era through adaptive leadership, ethical innovation, and what he calls “co-opetition”—succeeding not by outpacing others, but by building ecosystems where everyone rises.

Whether on stage, in the boardroom, or behind the mic, Simon sparks bold conversations about the future of business, technology, and leadership. His message resonates with those navigating uncertainty, seeking reinvention, or looking to stay ahead in the infinite game of business.

He’s the founder of Ethereal Ventures, a certified John C. Maxwell speaker and coach, and most importantly—husband to Tina and father to Nova and Milton.
