Energy and utility companies operate at scale, with large, distributed workforces navigating enormous change. Coro brings a message of resourcefulness, resilience and innovation that resonates from the field to the C-suite.

Utilities like Exelon, National Grid, NextEra Energy and FPL book him for innovation events and for the affinity-group celebrations where Innovating with an Accent unites diverse teams.

During Hispanic Heritage Month 2021, NextEra Energy / FPL brought Coro to its Juno Beach, Florida headquarters for an in-person keynote, one of the few in-person sessions in a season that was otherwise mostly virtual. His most requested talk that year, Resourcefulness Is in Our Roots, tells how he grew up in Cuba during hard times and how people innovated to survive: a story about innovating under constraint that suits organizations adapting to change. Exelon, National Grid and EnerSys have each booked his signature keynote, Innovating with an Accent.

Energy & Utilities keynote: common questions

Which keynote fits an energy or utilities audience?
Exelon, National Grid and EnerSys have all booked Innovating with an Accent. Resourcefulness Is in Our Roots, Coro's personal story of innovating under hard constraints, is the other favorite for Heritage Month events. Scrappy Innovation and the AI talks suit change and efficiency themes.
Can a keynote reach employees at several sites?
Yes. Coro has delivered sessions with the audience in the room and online at the same time, and his studio is set up for streaming-quality virtual keynotes, so teams across plants, offices and regions can join the same event.
Is in person worth it compared with virtual?
Both work. In 2021 most sessions were virtual, yet Coro singled out his in-person keynote at NextEra Energy / FPL for the connection it created with organizers and the audience. If your team can gather, we will plan for the room; if not, we will make the virtual session feel live.
What does a typical engagement involve?
A 45-minute keynote with Q&A at the end. Coro is sometimes also asked to moderate a panel or lead a workshop on a specific topic. Share your goals when you check availability and the talk will be tailored to them.
