With a background in technology journalism and years in live television, she has built a reputation for cutting through hype and helping organizations understand what emerging technology actually means for work, business, and everyday life.
Barrat is best known for her seven years presenting The Gadget Show, where she explained consumer technology, innovation, and digital trends to mainstream audiences.

She has delivered keynotes at major conferences and corporate events on artificial intelligence, the future of work, digital literacy, and ethical innovation. Among today’s leading AI speakers, her perspective stands out for being grounded in real-world application rather than speculation, focused on how organizations can adopt new tools responsibly while keeping people at the center of every decision.
She is also a committed advocate for inclusion in technology.
