Chris Happ

Chief Executive Officer VirtuousAI

Chris Happ is the CEO of VirtuousAI, where he’s pioneered a new era of execution for mid-market businesses with BAIO—the world’s first Business Automation, Intelligence & Outcomes system. A serial entrepreneur and seasoned technology leader, Chris has spent his career transforming how companies operate, scale, and win with connected data. Driven by a deep understanding of mid-market business challenges, Chris launched VirtuousAI to stop The Silo Tax, the costly disconnect of teams making decisions in isolation. Under his leadership, VirtuousAI is redefining how retailers compete in the AI era: not by outspending the giants, but by out-executing them. His mission is to empower mid-market leaders to move faster, work smarter, and achieve measurable outcomes that drive sustainable growth. Before founding VirtuousAI, Chris built and exited multiple successful ventures at the intersection of finance, supply chain, and enterprise software. His background blends deep operational knowledge with a visionary approach to automation and business intelligence, making him a trusted voice on the future of work, data, and strategic AI.
