Mike Knecht has spent more than 20 years helping organizations drive business value through technology, with a deep focus on enterprise integration, API enablement, cloud solutions, and governance. He currently serves as a Managing Director at Accenture overseeing the North America MuleSoft practice including strategy, solution architecture, and delivery across a national portfolio and all industries. Mike also serves as the Public Services industry lead for MuleSoft and has worked with dozens of state and local government agencies to help them leverage technology to better serve their citizens.

Mike believes that a properly implemented and governed integration and API foundation is one of the most powerful investments an organization can make for connecting its data, systems, and people while laying a foundation for AI enablement. He is energized by the opportunity Accenture's scale provides to bring that value to even more organizations. Outside of work, Mike is based in Orange County, California, where he enjoys time with his two kids and spending time in nature and the community around him.
