Katie Drummond

Global Editorial Director, WIRED

Katie Drummond focuses on the future of work and how we can work with technology like AI, not against it. As the global editorial director of WIRED, one of the world’s most influential and iconic technology magazines, she leads the content strategy across all platforms and markets. Every day, she oversees groundbreaking, agenda-setting journalism that spans emerging technology, scientific progress, and the successes and pitfalls of the world’s biggest technology companies.


She has an extensive background in online media, with a specific focus on driving experimentation and groundbreaking digital innovation: During her five-year tenure as the Senior Vice President of Global News & Entertainment at VICE, Katie’s pioneering approach to platforms like TikTok and Twitch generated massive audience growth and won external plaudits, including an Online Journalism Award for VICE News’ original reporting on TikTok. She also oversaw VICE’s ambitious expansion across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Latin America, and led teams whose work was honored with Emmy, Peabody, and National Press Club awards, among others. Earlier in her career, Drummond held key leadership positions at several high-profile media outlets, including as deputy editor of Bloomberg.com and Editor-in-Chief of Gizmodo.
