Full Profile
Meet Kitty Horlick
Kitty Horlick is an expert on blockchain, AI, enhanced cryptography, and how these next-generation technologies are reshaping society.
She is the COO of Rarilabs, the blockchain-based research centre. The tools she pioneers tackle some of the biggest challenges facing life online; from ensuring AI and AI-generated content is easy to detect, to keeping your personal data out of the hands of social media giants.
Rarilabs’ proudest accomplishment is Freedom Tool, a surveillance-free voting tool that was used by Russian dissidents to anonymously protest Putin, and which survived several attacks from the Kremlin. Rarilabs is also a key contributor to the digital identity protocol Rarimo.
Prior to Rarilabs, Kitty ran and founded Blackwood, a consultancy firm focused on onboarding traditional businesses into emergent technologies including AI and web3-associated technologies such as blockchain, and cryptocurrency.
She is passionate about making complex technologies and the hidden impacts they have on businesses and society at large accessible.
Kitty is a long-term adopter of blockchain with over eight years experience in the space. She is a tech insider: deeply embedded in the industry and with her finger closely on the pulse of the latest trends and challenges.
In 2023, Kitty was the expert chosen to appear on a BBC Radio 4 programme examining crypto, blockchain and web3.
