Now a popular keynote speaker, Christopher Wylie shares his firsthand accounts of the technical sophistication and political mendacity behind the most serious threats to Western democracy.

As an eyewitness to the misuse of big data, Wylie saw firsthand how elections worldwide were being undermined. His testimony before the US Congress and UK Parliament have spurred legislative initiatives in both countries.
In addition to his powerful speaking engagements, Christopher Wylie has channeled his experiences into a book titled Mindf*ck: Cambridge Analytica and the Plot to Break America. In this thought-provoking read, he delves deep into the intricate web of modern information warfare, revealing the far-reaching implications and offering solutions to safeguard our democratic processes for future generations.

Christopher Wylie is the former Director of Research for Cambridge Analytica and SCL Group, and as he puts it, the person who created “Steve Bannon’s psychological warfare mindfuck tool.” In 2018, he worked with The Guardian and the New York Times as a whistleblower to expose that Cambridge Analytica had allegedly illegally obtained and exploited the data of 87 million Facebook users for the purposes of creating targeted political campaigns for the 2016 US presidential elections.
