Cindy Gallop

Cindy Gallop is a British advertising executive, entrepreneur, and public speaker known for her leadership in the need to end rape culture globally and to promote healthy attitudes towards sex. She is the founder and CEO of MakeLoveNotPorn, the world’s first user-generated, 100% human-curated social sex video-sharing platform that acts as the badly-needed documentary to porn’s Hollywood movie – normalizing and de-stigmatizing sex, to promote consent, communication, good sexual values and behavior, as sex education through real world demonstration. Cindy is also the founder of MakeLoveNotPorn Academy, the 0-18 and beyond aggregator hub that will make the best of the world’s sex education information easily accessible and useful for children, young people, parents, teachers and schools, solving for the issues raised in Netflix’s ‘Adolescence’. Cindy is currently raising funding for the Academy and anticipates launching later this year.

Before launching MakeLoveNotPorn, Cindy worked in advertising, including at global creative agency Bartle Bogle Hegarty (BBH), for whom she founded their US office in New York in 1998. Cindy consults, coaches and is an in-demand speaker at conferences and events worldwide. She is a serial SXSW speaker and her TED Talk 'MakeLoveNotPorn' has been viewed by more than 2.5 million people globally.
