Complimentary Webinar Exclusively for BXNet Active Members via Zoom

John Huisman, COO of Blue Cypress

Smarter Operations. Stronger Member Value. Built for the Future.

Artificial intelligence is transforming the way building exchanges and construction associations operate and we are uniquely positioned to benefit.

Join Blue Cypress for an interactive webinar exploring how AI can help your organization save time, improve member engagement, streamline operations, and deliver greater value without increasing staff workload.

Whether you're just beginning to explore AI or looking for practical ways to expand its use, this session will provide actionable insights you can implement immediately.

John is the COO of Blue Cypress, a family of AI-first software and services companies built for associations and nonprofits. John’s focus is helping these organizations use AI to drive real business outcomes, not to chase the technology for its own sake.
Across the portfolio John oversees eight operating companies and the teams behind them, with responsibility spanning product, go-to-market, and operations. Each one builds practical AI that helps lean, mission-driven teams operate with the reach and capability of organizations many times their size, from member engagement to making sense of their data. John’s work centers on the operating model that ties the companies together and keeping each one accountable to outcomes its customers can see.
Before Blue Cypress, John was an Associate Partner at Bain & Company in Atlanta, focused on consumer goods and on digital transformation, strategy, and operating model, with an emphasis on generative AI. Prior to Bain, John co-founded Radolo, a software consultancy that built custom business applications with a focus on user experience for teams inside large companies. John has an MBA from Duke’s Fuqua School of Business and a BS in Business Administration from UNC Chapel Hill.
