About Our Speaker
Keith Krach currently serves as the Chairman of Krach Institute for Tech Diplomacy at Purdue University, and Co-Chairman of the nonpartisan Global Tech Security Commission. He most recently served as Under Secretary of State leading America’s economic diplomacy and having the rare distinction of being unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate.
As the nation’s top economic diplomat, Krach led the development of the bipartisan Global Economic Security Strategy; built the Clean Network Alliance of Democracies–defeated CCP’s 5G masterplan; spearheaded the TSMC onshoring in which resulted in $350B investment in domestic semiconductor manufacturing; primary architect for the bipartisan $280B CHIPS and Science Act; drove divestment in CCP companies to protect investors from unknowingly funding CCP military; championed the human rights by mobilizing action against CCP’s genocide in Xinjiang; and bolstered U.S.-Taiwan ties as the highest-ranking State Department official to visit in 41 years. As a result, Krach and his family were sanctioned by the CCP.
Krach served as DocuSign Chairman & CEO for 10 years; Ariba co-founder, Chairman & CEO; Chairman of Purdue’s Board of Trustees; Angie’s List Board Chairman; founder of the Global Mentor Network; 2000 E&Y National Entrepreneur of the Year, 2019 Harvard Business School Leader of the Year and youngest-ever Vice President of GM. Krach holds a B.S. and Honorary Doctorate in Engineering from Purdue, and MBA from Harvard.
