Hi, I’m Chris Goswami
I am a Christian minister, award-winning writer, and successful tech-consultant
If you’re looking for an accomplished Christian speaker, an impactful Christian writer, or a proven professional to work on your tech project, read on.
What can I do for you?
Speaking & Chairing
I am an engaging and impactful speaker. I have spoken at and chaired conferences in many countries as well as local church events.
Recent, brief examples of my speaking can be found here on this website, or, on YouTube under “Lymm Baptist Church” eg The Bible — in 10 minutes, or The Story of the Church — in 10 minutes.
Writing
I have been writing in the Christian sphere for over 10 years, and my work has been published across numerous media organisations in digital and print — eg see the scrolling ticker at the top of the homepage.
My writing has been recognised as Christian Blogger of the Year, and runner up of Most Inspiring Leadership Blogger. Samples of my writing can easily be found here on this website.
Consulting
I have held senior roles in several high-tech organisations. As VP of Product Management and then VP of Communications I headed up highly successful teams at two Silicon Valley start-ups from 2008 to 2022.
My interests include any aspects of technology, “big tech” organisations, and the impact of technology on society. I have been commissioned many times to write or speak on these topics.
My latest project is to draw together senior Christian experts from church, academia and industry to understand the impacts of AI on Christians. There’s more at https://aichristian.org/
