The lecture will be hosted by Chloe Smith MP; the lecturer is Dr. Ben Scott, Senior Advisor to the Open Technology Institute at the New America Foundation in Washington DC and a Visiting Fellow at the Stiftung Neue Verantwortung in Berlin.

In a small team of advisors to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, he worked to help steward the 21st Century Statecraft agenda with a focus on technology policy, social media and development. Prior to joining the State Department, for six years he led the Washington office for Free Press, the largest non-profit organisation in the US dealing exclusively with media and communications policy.
After the lecture, Chloe Smith MP will Chair a debate with the audience and panel of Digital Democracy experts. The evening will end with networking drinks in the Atlee Suite.
