Welcome to the digital home of Shawn Michael O’Keefe.
Innovation Facilitator. Business & Product Strategist.
Cyclist. Musician. Maker of Things.
Dad of Ian & Mabel.
I help people build things — turning ideas into successful products and viable businesses. With over two decades of leadership in innovation and design, I’ve been fortunate to drive creative, customer-focused initiatives for startups and established companies alike. Whether mentoring entrepreneurs, running startup accelerators, or spearheading programs in sectors like HealthTech, AI/ML, Hardware/IoT, GovTech and Impact — I live at the intersection of creativity and getting it done.
Currently, I’m the Head of Innovation at CODE Éxitos, a product studio (and B Corp) dedicated to helping innovators and entrepreneurs launch transformative digital products. I’m also a co-producer of H³ ATX, Austin’s monthly Hardware Happy Hour, and I tinker with my own product ideas via 0112 Design & Machine.
