Our next KITE digital ThinkIn is an unmissable opportunity to see Bill Browder in conversation with James Harding.
Originally due to appear as part of the Ideas programme at the inaugural edition of KITE, Putin’s No.1 enemy will now join us digitally on Monday 11th May at 18:30 UK time to talk about his jaw-dropping experiences with the Russian authorities.
Bill Browder is founder and CEO of Hermitage Capital Management, Head of the Global Magnitsky Justice Campaign and author of Red Notice: How I became Putin’s No 1 enemy.
Browder was the largest foreign investor in Russia until 2005, when he was declared “a threat to national security” for exposing corruption in Russian state-owned companies. Browder’s lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, uncovered a massive fraud, testified against state officials and was subsequently arrested, imprisoned without trial and systematically tortured until he died in prison a year later. Browder has sought justice outside of Russia and started a global campaign to impose targeted visa bans and asset freezes on human rights abusers and corrupt officials. He is working to have similar legislation passed across the European Union and countries worldwide.
