Scholar. Entrepreneur. Visionary.

Dakota Rea's journey began with an insatiable curiosity about how technology and ethics intersect in shaping human society. This curiosity led to an academic path that would take him through some of the world's most prestigious institutions—Harvard Business School, the University of Oxford, MIT, and the Wharton School.

At Oxford, Dakota's research focuses on the philosophy of Jeremy Bentham, particularly as it applies to modern ethical dilemmas in artificial intelligence. As a Jeremy Bentham Scholar, he explores how utilitarian principles can guide the development of AI systems that maximize benefit while minimizing harm.

Beyond academia, Dakota has built a reputation as a leading voice on Generation Y and millennial market dynamics. His insights have been sought by Fortune 500 companies and startups alike, helping organizations understand and engage with the largest generation in history.

As founder of the Tudor Foundation, Dakota channels his passion for history and heritage preservation into meaningful action. The foundation works to conserve Tudor architectural landmarks, support academic research, and make England's rich Tudor history accessible to future generations.

Today, Dakota serves as a UK Solicitor Trainee at Slaughter and May, one of the world's most prestigious law firms, where he is tutored by a member of the Oxford Faculty of Law. This role allows him to combine his legal expertise with his passion for ethical business practices, advising clients on complex corporate matters while maintaining the highest standards of integrity.
