We are thrilled to announce that Ari Paul of BlockTower Capital will speak at Orchid's Priv8 Virtual Privacy Summit. Priv8, a first-of-its-kind event focused on digital privacy, is a venue for experts to share their experiences, predictions, hopes, and advice with like-minded people around the world. Ari joins a growing slate of distinguished speakers, including journalist, analyst, and author Glenn Greenwald.

Ari is the co-founder and CIO of BlockTower Capital. He was previously a portfolio manager for the University of Chicago's $8 billion endowment, and a derivatives market maker and proprietary trader for Susquehanna International Group (SIG).

Ari will be joined by experts from many different spheres related to privacy. In a time when governments are testing the limits of individual privacy in the name of public safety, and powerful technology companies hold greater sway over public policy than ever before, privacy has surged to the forefront of public debate. As such, robust discussion and education around the topic are more important than ever.

Priv8 will take place virtually on November 15th. A full schedule of events, as well as additional details about Priv8, will be made public ahead of the event. Register here to attend, free of charge.
