Kai Kight

Composer and Entrepreneur,

As a classical violinist turned innovative composer, Kai Kight uses music as a metaphor to inspire individuals and organizations across the world to compose paths of imagination and fulfillment. Inspired by his own mother who, when diagnosed with cancer, revealed regrets of not bringing her ideas to the world, Mr. Kight is on a mission to spark a global mindset shift in which ingenuity is the norm, not the exception. He is a graduate of Stanford University’s design and engineering program, a Mayfield Fellow, and a Kleiner Perkins Design Fellow. As a musician, Mr. Kight has performed his original music for thousands in venues across the world, from the White House to the Great Wall of China. As a speaker, he has created impactful experiences for audiences at conferences, companies, and universities internationally. Some of his clients include The Walt Disney Company, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and the Super Bowl–winning Seattle Seahawks.
