Founder of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation Jimmy Wales knows the value of trust in history, information and each other.

In his hopeful and practical new book, The Seven Rules of Trust: Why It’s Today’s Most Essential Superpower, the internet entrepreneur and trailblazer lays out clear, actionable steps to build deeper, stronger connections to protect the invaluable resources of trust, knowledge and truth.

Hear how you can turn the tide on misinformation and rebuild the communities we can’t afford to lose with Jimmy, in conversation with Richard Fidler.

“Jimmy Wales argues beautifully that without passion and crazy ideas, very little gets done. Without trust, almost nothing gets done.” — Bill Nye
