Our mission is to create a generation of ethical hackers to make the world safer.

Cyber threats are multiplying at record speed. The global cost of cybercrime in 2025 is set to be $10.5 trillion - the same as the global cost of Covid. The people carrying out these attacks? Kids. 69% of European Teens have committed a cybercrime/cybermisdemeanor.

The average age of traditional criminalsis 37, but the average cybercriminal is just 19. We’ve seen massive cyberattacks on M&S, Co-op, LVMH, Harrods, and Jaguar Land Rover carried out by Scattered Spider criminal hackers, aged just 17-20.

The Hacking Games exists to flip this script. We address these issues and more in our keynotes, panels, and workshops.
