Tudor Mihailescu is a Co-Founder at GovFaces and a Doctoral Candidate at the Graduate Institute in Geneva, Switzerland. Tudor believes the current political communication system is in deep crisis because of an over-reliance on top-down mass broadcasting. That’s why in 2013 he co-founded the digital start-up GovFaces- on a mission to find an efficient way to facilitate two-way conversation at scale between citizens and politicians. In the last three years, Tudor and his colleagues have offered consultancy on digital engagement to various stakeholders at the European Union, the United Nations, but also in Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Before GovFaces, Tudor worked in volunteer management and political awareness campaigns in Romania. Complementing his professional experience, Tudor is currently pursuing doctoral research in speechwriting and foreign policy rhetoric.
