Gerome Seeney

Founder & CEO
Madd Kitchen Inc.

Gerome Seeney is an entrepreneur, strategist, and speaker shaping the future of hospitality through the fusion of entertainment, technology, and human connection. As Founder & CEO of Madd Kitchen Inc., he’s on a mission to redefine what he calls the “Third Home,” a hybrid space where dining, entertainment, and community seamlessly intertwine.

With a background in executive leadership and operations, Gerome has built his career on designing environments that spark meaningful interactions. He brings a systems-led mindset to hospitality, blending AI-driven personalisation with intentional design principles. Under his stewardship, Madd Kitchen uses predictive data and thoughtful spatial layouts to craft experiences that feel both personal and surprising.

Gerome’s philosophy challenges the status quo. He believes hospitality is not just about service but about cultivating human relationships between guests, within communities, and across cultures. His approach combines cutting-edge technology with warmth and spontaneity, ensuring that spaces adapt to people, not the other way around.

His signature frameworks include Progressive Personalisation, in which each visit refines the guest experience so it feels intuitively tailored; Social Architecture, where design layouts foster organic, comfortable human connection; and Anticipatory Evolution, with spaces that adapt over time, surprising returning guests with fresh, purposeful elements.

Before founding Madd Kitchen, Gerome held executive roles in hospitality and entertainment, where he developed a deep understanding of operations, customer experience, and team leadership. That hands-on background now fuels his ability to scale a tech-powered hospitality concept without sacrificing its human soul.

Gerome is a frequent speaker and thought leader in the startup and business communities. For Gerome, his purpose is building spaces that evolve with people, amplify connection, and make every visit feel like coming home.
