Every election cycle spawns new, well-funded ‘meme factories’ that bend public opinion before their targets have a chance to understand them.

 

Recently, we've seen public figures and companies be targeted by disinformation campaigns which hijack and amplify existing beliefs.

 

Key discussion points will include:  

  • The new techniques of the political, financial and socially-motived disinformation cells.

  • The 'playbook' that rogue actors implement in order to pollute digital discourse.

  • Our newest research into the impact and scale of disinformation campaigns.
  • Rapid-response counter measures to prevent a false narrative 'going viral'. 

 

The session will be led by Marcus Beard, founder of Fenimore Harper Communications and former Head of Digital Counter-Misinformation at the UK Cabinet Office and No.10. Marcus brings a wealth of real-world experience in safeguarding public discourse and now advises public and private sector leaders on hostile narrative resilience.

Reserve your spot now for this essential discussion on one of the biggest emerging challenges in public communications.
