Fergus Hay, CEO and Co-Founder, The Hacking Games
Fergus Hay is a leading global voice on cybersecurity, digital psychology and Gen Z culture. As Co-founder and CEO of The Hacking Games, the world’s most recognised Gen Z Hacking Platform, he is reshaping the future of cyber talent by redirecting teens from cybercrime to careers in ethical hacking.
Through gamified simulation, AI-based aptitude mapping (the HAPTAI platform), The Hacking Games tackles one of the defining challenges of the digital age - cybercrime projected to exceed $24 trillion annually 2027, while millions of cybersecurity roles remain unfilled. This work reframes security not as a technical issue, but as a cultural and generational opportunity.
A trusted media voice, Fergus regularly appears on BBC World News, Sky News, NBC, and is featured in The Financial Times, The Times and The Sunday Times.
