IT Nation Connect 2023 keynote speakers
Jesse Cole
Jesse Cole is the founder of Fans First Entertainment and owner of the Savannah Bananas, a well-known baseball team that has sold out every game since their very first season. Not only does the team have a ticket waitlist that's well into the thousands, they've also amassed a huge social media following—over 2 million followers on TikTok alone—and have become known as "TikTok's favorite team." Jesse has been featured in Entrepreneur Magazine, MSNBC, ESPN, HBO Real Sports, on over 1000 podcasts, and once at his son's show and tell.
As a man of many talents, Jesse is the proud inventor of Banana Ball and Dolce and Banana underwear as well as the not-quite-as-proud promoter of the Human Horse Race and Flatulence Fun Night. He is also the author of two best-selling books, Find Your Yellow Tux and Fans First. Fun fact: Jesse owns seven yellow tuxedos and proposed to his wife, Emily, in a yellow tux in front of a sold-out crowd. He and Emily have one son, Maverick, and are also proud foster parents. Jesse has traveled the world giving keynote speeches and sharing the Fans First Experience, and we couldn't be more thrilled to have him at IT Nation Connect 2023.
