Headshot of Ben Parry

Hi, I'm Benjamin Parry

I've built products, written policy, and filled lecture halls. In each case my work has focused on making complex things clear to people who need to act on them.

Originally from London 🇬🇧, I went to university in Philadelphia 🇺🇸, lived for 6 months in 佛山 🇨🇳, and am now based in Toronto 🇨🇦.

I run The Toronto Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. An experiment in education and research for the next 100 years of human flourishing.

Previously, I co-founded and led policy at Build Canada where I wrote and edited policy recommendations that were read widely within the Canadian federal government and helped shaped the future of billions of dollars of spending.

Before that I worked at Tim Hortons where I designed, built and ran the largest loyalty program in Canada including setting up the organisation's data science team.

If you're interested in working together, reach out! ben@benparry.ca

另外,我每天说和读中文。我的目标是有一天能够读写跟我的英语水平差不多一样。如果您想跟我交谈,请告诉我!

P.S. don't drain
