Santiago Siri Biography
Santiago Siri is an Argentine entrepreneur, author, and technologist whose career spans video game development, social media analytics, digital democracy, and blockchain governance. Siri began his career as a game developer and co-founded the Argentine Game Developers Association. At 18, he founded the first Argentine company to export a video game to international markets. He later co-founded Three Melons, a project acquired by Disney, before building Popego, a research and development laboratory focused on artificial intelligence for social media analytics. Popego merged with Boo-Box, a major advertising network in Brazil, and the combined company became Grupo 42.
As leader of Grupo 42's research and development lab, Siri contributed to the company's recognition among the 50 most innovative companies by Fast Company. He has been a prominent advocate for technology startups in Latin America and has contributed to radio and television programming, discussing technology's impact. At Grupo 42, Siri integrated machine learning, natural language processing, and big data to support global brands.
Siri is the founder and CEO of Democracy Earth Foundation, a nonprofit organization focused on digital governance technology. The foundation builds on his earlier work with DemocracyOS and Partido de la Red, the Net Party of Argentina, the first digital political party to run for elections with candidates committed to the digital will of the people. His platform, "Sovereign," leverages blockchain technology to verify voting processes on an online participatory democracy platform, replacing monetary transactions with verified votes. Siri also authored the smart contract that enables universal basic income on Ethereum as an ERC20 token through UBI DAO.
Siri is the author of "Hacktivismo," published by Random House, a manual on government hacking that became a bestseller in Latin America. He was named a 35 Under 35 Visionary of the Year by MIT Technology Review and was profiled by Wired Magazine in a feature story titled "Meet Santiago Siri, The Man With A Radical Plan For Voting On The Blockchain." TechCrunch recognized him as the father of the first global citizen with a blockchain-based birth certificate. A TEDx speaker and World Economic Forum Global Shaper, Siri is recognized for his work at the intersection of technology, democracy, and civic innovation.
