Toju Duke

Toju Duke is a Responsible AI leader, founder and CEO of Bedrock AI, and a globally recognised expert on building safe, fair and human-centred artificial intelligence systems. She is frequently hired as a London keynote speaker because of her rare blend of deep technical experience at Google, practical leadership in deploying responsible AI at scale, and her influential work shaping global AI governance conversations. Her talks translate complex AI ethics into clear, actionable strategies for organisations navigating regulation, risk, and innovation, making her especially valuable to businesses, governments and technology leaders seeking trustworthy AI adoption.

Toju’s early education and career were rooted in marketing, business development and digital advertising roles, where she developed strong commercial and product instincts. Beginning with marketing assistant positions and progressing through specialist advertising roles at Google, including dynamic ads, shopping and hotel ads, she built expertise in large-scale data-driven products. Her career accelerated when she became Product Lead for Google’s travel business across EMEA, and later Programme Manager for Responsible AI at Google, where she helped shape some of the company’s first structured approaches to ethical AI. These experiences laid the foundation for her later leadership in responsible AI research, advisory work, and entrepreneurship.

Toju Duke is hired as a London keynote speaker because she brings globally recognised thought leadership on responsible and inclusive AI from both an academic and policy perspective. As the author of ‘Responsible AI in Practice: A Practical Guide to Safe & Human AI’ and ‘Building Responsible AI Algorithms: A Framework for Transparency, Fairness, Safety, Privacy & Robustness’, she provides audiences with practical frameworks they can immediately apply. Audiences. especially in finance, government, and tech regulation, value her ability to explain emerging AI governance trends, risk management strategies, and ethical design principles in ways that align with the UK’s growing focus on AI regulation and trustworthy innovation.

She is also invited to speak because of her influence in shaping diverse and inclusive AI ecosystems. As founder of Diverse AI and an Ambassador for Women in AI, she advocates for representation, fairness, and accountability in AI development. London organisations working on DEI, ESG, and ethical technology initiatives seek her insights on building inclusive AI teams, addressing bias in data and models, and ensuring AI systems serve all communities. Her advisory work and involvement with the Ethical AI Network at The Institute for Ethical AI & Machine Learning further reinforce her credibility with policymakers, researchers, and corporate leaders.

Toju Duke’s international speaking experience, such as presenting at major global technology events including Digital Almaty, demonstrates her ability to engage audiences across industries and cultures. London conference organisers hire her because she combines visionary thinking with clear storytelling, offering strategic guidance on the future of AI, responsible innovation, and organisational readiness.
