Book Maury to SpeakWHAT MAURY SPEAKS ABOUT
Civic Technology & Government Innovation
Drawing on his decade leading Accela — the platform powering permitting, licensing, and code enforcement for hundreds of governments — Maury explores how technology can rebuild trust between citizens and institutions, and why the next wave of civic tech will be AI-native.
Digital Trust & the Integrity Crisis
As Co-Founder of The Transparency Company, Maury makes the case that fake reviews, AI-generated content, and information manipulation are not just business problems — they are civilizational threats. He outlines a practical framework for restoring integrity to digital markets.
Entrepreneurship at the Intersection of Technology & Policy
From early-stage startups to scaling companies past $100M in revenue, Maury has operated at the place where technology, regulation, and markets collide. He shares hard-won lessons on building mission-driven companies in regulated industries.
Geopolitics, Technology & National Security
With experience at the intersection of government data, intelligence, and commercial technology, Maury offers a practitioner's perspective on how technology is reshaping geopolitical power — and what American companies and policymakers must do to stay ahead.
Artificial Intelligence: Opportunity, Risk & Governance
AI is not a future event — it is a present disruption. Maury cuts through the hype to address what AI means for enterprise, government, and society, and why the governance frameworks we build today will determine whether AI becomes a tool of trust or a weapon of manipulation.
Endurance, Resilience & the Executive Mindset
An 11-time Ironman finisher including the World Championship in Kona, Maury draws direct lines between the discipline of endurance athletics and the mental fortitude required to lead companies through adversity, uncertainty, and transformation.
