Dawn Carrington

AI‑driven disinformation, deepfakes and coordinated misinformation campaigns are now a permanent feature of the operating environment for governments, boards and brands. In this keynote, Dawn Carrington draws on 25 years advising Prime Minister Lord David Cameron, senior members of the Royal Family, regulators and FTSE 100s to show leaders how disinformation spreads, who is most at risk and what to do before, during and after a crisis.

She demystifies the strategies, exposes the techniques used to polarize and destabilize, and gives leaders a practical playbook to protect trust with employees, customers, investors and the public.

Attendees leave with a clear framework to spot emerging threats early, respond without amplifying bad actors, brief boards and regulators with confidence and build long‑term resilience into their organizations’ communications, governance and culture.
