About
Understanding consciousness is one of the greatest challenges for 21st Century science. How does the wetware inside our skull give rise to the rich inner universe of ‘being you’? Anil’s mission is to explain how consciousness happens – and to use these insights to better the science of medicine, technology, and society.

Meet Anil Seth, a world-leading Professor of Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience at the University of Sussex, where he is also the co-director of the world’s leading research centre on consciousness. He is a bestselling author of ‘Being You: A New Science of Consciousness’, which is a topic he has also elaborated upon on the TED-stage with more than 12 million views.

Join this session to get a first row seat into how our minds capture the world, understand why we don’t perceive the world objectively, and get a better understanding of what ‘being you’ actually means.

Reserve your free seat for this Masterclass with Anil Seth on the 3rd of November, where you among many things will learn…

1) Why do people perceive the world differently?
2) Why we might live in perceptual ‘echo chambers'
3) How to use this to better understand, and encourage change in, people's behaviour

Our annual conference attracts 3,000+ executives, entrepreneurs, investors, and policymakers that benefit from lectures by some of the world’s foremost business experts and have the opportunity to network with a diverse, high-level international audience.
