Rufo Guerreschi is president of the Coalition for a Baruch Plan for AI (CBPAI) and founder of the Trustless Computing Association. He leads an international coalition of 10+ NGOs and 40+ multidisciplinary advisors — from institutions including the NSA, United Nations, WEF, Princeton, and McKinsey — focused on advancing a US-China co-led treaty framework for AI safety, inspired by nuclear non-proliferation models.

His work centers on an under-explored lever in AI governance: mapping specific influence pathways to decision-makers and building the political coalitions needed to make binding international agreements tractable. CBPAI’s recently published 354-page Strategic Memo analyzes these pathways in detail.

Before AI governance, Rufo spent two decades in tech entrepreneurship and digital security, including pioneering the Trustless Computing Paradigm and running the Free and Safe in Cyberspace conference series since 2015. Based between Italy and Switzerland.
