Seetha will be bringing comedy, energy, and a little chaos to <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/foundersliveftl/" title="https://www.linkedin.com/company/foundersliveftl/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Founders Live Fort Lauderdale</a> — cheering on local founders, roasting the South Florida tech scene (lovingly), and turning pitch night into a full-on U-ltimate tailgate party.

Seetha is a rare blend of technology professional by profession and comedian by passion, bringing together analytical thinking and sharp humor in a way few performers can. With over two decades of experience in the technology world, he understands startups, founders, AI buzzwords, corporate culture, deadlines, meetings, and the beautiful chaos that comes with building products and companies. What sets Seetha apart is his signature PowerPoint comedy show, where real tech insights meet comedy, storytelling, and AI-generated visuals that amplify every punchline. The result is a fast-paced, highly relatable experience that tech audiences instantly connect with — because the jokes come from someone who’s lived the life, not just observed it.Originally from India and now based in South Florida, Seetha has performed for corporate events, conferences, startup communities, country clubs, and comedy clubs around the world. His clean, inclusive style makes him a favorite with event planners who want big laughs without risk, and audiences who want entertainment that feels smart, current, and genuinely fun.By combining stand-up comedy, visual humor, and real-world experience, Seetha delivers shows that don’t just entertain — they energize rooms, spark connection, and turn complex tech realities into shared laughter.Whether it’s founders pitching in 99 seconds or teams navigating the future of AI, Seetha proves one thing every time he takes the stage: Great technology still needs great storytelling — and laughter makes it unforgettable.
