Keynote Speaker Biography

About Seyi Akiwowo

Founder and CEO of Glitch
Author of How to Stay Safe Online
Youngest black woman elected Councillor in East London
Seyi Akiwowo is the Founder and CEO of Glitch, a charity dedicated to preventing online abuse, gender-based violence, and hate speech. She is also the author of "How to Stay Safe Online" (Penguin, 2022), a guide on identifying red flags, responding to threats, and using the internet positively.

Seyi's commitment to creating a safer world began when she was elected Councillor in East London at 23, becoming the youngest black woman to hold the position. Motivated by her own experiences with online abuse, she founded Glitch, which has grown into Europe’s leading not-for-profit focused on online safety for marginalised groups.

As Glitch evolved from a social enterprise to a medium-sized charity, Seyi has been recognised for her leadership and dedication to inclusive change. She has been appointed to TikTok and Twitter’s European Trust and Safety Council, named Digital Leader of The Year in 2019, and featured as one of WIRED’s Global Changemakers. Additionally, she serves on the Board of Multitudes Foundation, supporting changemakers across Europe in reimagining political power.

In Spring 2022, Seyi was offered an MBE for her work but chose not to accept it.
