Prof. Hannah Fry Keynote Speaker, Virtual Event Speaker

What sets Hannah Fry apart as a Speaker is her rare ability to make sophisticated mathematics feel relevant, entertaining and surprisingly human. She does not simply explain equations or statistics; she reveals the hidden patterns influencing everyday decisions, from how cities function and epidemics spread to how algorithms shape our lives.

Her work has consistently connected mathematics with some of society’s biggest questions. She has examined the opportunities and limitations of algorithms, explored mathematical modelling during the pandemic and investigated the role of data and technology in modern life. Her book Hello World: How to Be Human in the Age of the Machine brought these ideas to a global audience, examining how algorithms influence decisions and what happens when machines make choices that affect people.

Hannah Fry’s relevance to today’s business and technology conversations has grown further through her work on artificial intelligence. The Future with Hannah Fry explores transformative developments including AI, quantum computing, clean energy and the weaponisation of data, while her 2026 AI Confidential with Hannah Fry continues that exploration.

Her exceptional contribution to public understanding was recognised in 2024 with the Royal Society David Attenborough Award and Lecture. In July 2026, she received the prestigious Leelavati Prize at the International Congress of Mathematicians, with the citation recognising her as one of the foremost global ambassadors for mathematical thinking.

For audiences, this means a Speaker who can bridge the worlds of mathematics, business, technology and society without sacrificing either intellectual depth or entertainment.
