About
She builds what
shouldn't work yet
Julia Cordray
Julia Cordray is a serial disruptive tech entrepreneur and futurist based in Sydney, best known for Peeple — a reputation platform that let people build and port their reputation globally, and which put her at the centre of a worldwide conversation about identity, trust and the internet.
Two decades in technology recruitment, marketing and product gave her an unusual triangle of expertise: she knows what to build, how to make the world care, and who to hire to ship it. Three of her companies — Career Fox, 96 Talents and Peeple — have exited. She has mentored startups across the globe and spoken at conferences and universities internationally on AI, the future of work and building through controversy.
