The story

Built from the inside out.

Mo didn't read about disruption from the sidelines. He lived it — from the boardrooms of MetLife and AXA to the founding tables of InoHealth and Kwelio. A builder who chose to leave the comfort of a 22-year corporate career to build the future of preventive health in Europe and the GCC.

"The wise is the one who learns from others' mistakes — and acts before it is too late."

Speaking topics

What Mo speaks about.

01
Dare to Be Different
The philosophy behind the person. Why the willingness to be different — not just to think differently — is the single most important leadership skill of the next decade. A deeply personal keynote drawing from 22 years of choosing the harder, more meaningful path.
02
The Future of Health is Personal
Longevity, biomarkers, and the revolution that is already underway. Mo brings the frontline view of someone building a longevity health platform across Europe and the GCC — and what it means for every organisation that wants to attract and retain the best people.
03
From Boardroom to Builder
What it takes to leave a 22-year corporate career, walk into the unknown, and build something from scratch. The honest story of fear, conviction, and what happens when you decide that building is more important than comfort.
04
Proactive vs Reactive — The Only Choice That Matters
In business and in life, the organisations and individuals who thrive are the ones who move before the crisis hits. Mo translates this principle — lived in insurance, health, and startups — into a framework every team can apply the day they walk out of the room.
05
Insurance Reimagined
For insurance and financial services audiences: a deep-dive into the transformation from reactive payer to proactive health partner. The case for prevention, the business model of the future, and the companies that will own the next chapter of the industry.
06
The Ecosystem Mindset
No one wins alone. Mo's experience building commercial ecosystems across four markets — connecting clinics, corporates, tech partners, and insurers into a single value chain — offers a masterclass in partnership thinking for leaders who want to scale without losing their soul.

Core philosophy

"The wise learn from
others' mistakes.
The bold act before
it is too late."

Mo Ataya has spent 22 years watching organisations wait for the perfect moment. The market to stabilise. The technology to mature. The competition to move first. His message is simple and urgent: the window is always shorter than you think, the risk of inaction is always larger than it appears, and the people who changed the world were never the ones who waited.
