Chris knows firsthand the struggles of being a child lost in the education system. Diagnosed with a neurodivergent condition, he faced challenges with reading and writing every day, and at 15, he was forced to leave school without any formal education. But Chris didn't let that stop him. He spent the last 19 years making his mark in the tech industry, working with big companies on data and AI programs. He now looks after strategic programmes and Finops for BT’s Data & AI Division and is the founder of an SEND specialised Ed-tech organisation called Every Childs Future whose mission is to provide quality AI based technology to every child for free.
